              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: C.Gray
Another night with the Oklahoma City Thunder here at the beautiful APO arena! They came and played hard, working through the difficulties of the weather. Through some solid defense, wise plays, and good ball handling, they were able to pull a victory tonight against the Sunspot Clouds. However, the same could not be said for our other two teams of the night which lost heavily to the Clouds.  The area had to be closed early around 3:00am due to threat of rain and eventual rain and fog.
The newly trained UO students are:
Jordan Van Nest, Liz Ellithorpe, Jordan Sligh, Brett Bonine, Sarah Stang, Hunter Campbell, and Kalee Anderson
No problems tonight
