Windy Win for Aiken Hay Farms!

Those pesky April showers brought us a field change this past Sunday to Loughrea East, which is home to Brigadoon Polo. Aiken Hay Farms controlled most of the game against Hyde Park Farms, except the second chukker where they made some good plays for a comeback. Luis Galvan played exceptionally well. Despite Hyde Park's efforts, they were defeated by Aiken Hay Farms 9-6 for this 4 goal tournament game.



Maybe it was all that wind, but Aiken Hay player, Devon Dailey took a spill from his horse in the fourth chukker. We hope this won't be become a habit, but according to APC club manager, Craig Fraser, he has fallen off in both games he's played so far this season. Although there was no speaker equipment for Bob Besley to use for announcing, he was still full of his usual Bobisms. As soon as Devon was up and okay, Bob joked that he fell off that horse "like a sack of potatoes." As we left the announcer stand, I also heard Bob say, "He went through that goal like he had winds in his sails." Even without a microphone, he's still doing his thing in the announcer stand!




If you were wondering why we weren't giving out prizes this week, it's probably because we didn't arrive until the end of the third chukker. It's a long story, but let's just say that Lindsey and road detours on 302 don't mix. We promise to be back with all your favorites awards and prizes next week! Let's keep our fingers crossed for a Sunday game at Whitney Field!
