Norsemen Host and Compete in the Prestigious 52nd Annual El Cajon Invitational

El Cajon Invitational(Varsity) Day one

San Diego, CA — Battling through the adversity of sickness and injuries the Norsemen both successfully competed in and hosted the 52nd annual El Cajon Invitational. At one of the most difficult tournaments in the state, the Norsemen placed 8th out of 43 teams over the span of the two day tournament.

Abas Safi

As always, Abas puts forth his best effort even while feeling flu like symptoms the last 3 matches. His final match was a super close call and the ref (which is rare to hear anything from refs) indicated that he wished there were 2 more seconds to cut the corner on the shot. I think today was a lesson in the importance of planned urgency to get takedown points all match long and staying assertive. Abas' first big tourney placement. Good job Safi!

Refan Nael

Rafan showed that he CAN play with the big boys and keep his cool at the same time. 2nd place today is a big deal and a great start to the season. Good one Rafan!
