  • Teamup AUDL Power Rankings
    TeamUp Fantasy AUDL Power Rankings (7/8 - 7/14) https://www.teamupfantasy.com/ 1. Chicago Union The Union have earned the number one spot this week. They are now 5-0 after their win against the Radicals. Chicago's offense has so many weapons and they manage to take smart shots. In their game this past weekend, their defense played better than they have before. If they keep up this level of play they will have a good shot at the title. 2. DC Breeze DC is moving up a spot this week. Last weekend they beat the Empire in impressive fashion. They won by three, but New York scored a couple goals in the final minutes of the game. DC’s offense performed extremely well - as they always do - and their defense managed to get a ton of run through Ds. 3. New York Empire New York is stepping down from their pedestal this week. After being at the top for the first five weeks of the season, the Empire lost to the Breeze. The Empire allowed the Breeze to get too many run through Ds that could have been fixed. The Empire are still a great team and are still scary to face. 4. Raleigh Flyers The Flyers managed to beat the Cannons last week. With that being said, they are staying in the number four spot this week. They have another game against the Cannons next week, which should be another easy win. This team has a lot of potential to make it deep into the playoffs this year.

  • Teamup AUDL Power Rankings
    TeamUp Fantasy AUDL Power Rankings (7/29 - 8/4) https://www.teamupfantasy.com/ 1. Atlanta Hustle Atlanta proved why they should be number one last weekend. They played the Empire and put on a clinic, winning by a score of 22-21. The junky zone the Hustle use makes opposing offenses make a lot of throws and increases the chance of a turnover. Atlanta’s defense works together well in this zone, almost looking like a machine. 2. New York Empire The Empire may have lost, but they are still moving up this week. They have locked it in after a couple shaky performances earlier in the season. Losing to the Hustle by just one is nothing to be ashamed of. Babbitt carried the Empire’s defense and got 4 blocks last week. 3. Chicago Union The Union are moving down a spot this week, but they didn’t play terribly. They beat the Wind Chill, who only had one loss before that game. Minnesota collected 13 blocks against them, but besides that they only had 7 other turnovers. Their offense, which is led by Janas, valued the disc and made the Wind Chill earn their turnovers. 4. DC Breeze The Breeze did not have a game last weekend, which could be a good or bad thing. They get rest, but this also gives them more time to think about their loss to the Hustle two weeks ago. Next week they face the Phoenix, which should be a win for the Breeze. 5. Raleigh Flyers Raleigh was another team that did not have a game last weekend.

  • Letter from a Hopekids Family Dear Friend of Hopekids
    June 2017 North Texas R LETTER from A HOPEKIDS Family Dear Friend of HopeKids, I have been meaning to share with you what a difference you have made in our family since last spring, but life got in the way and I haven’t had a moment. Please know that my delay in sharing does not diminish the appreciation we have for you. Last summer, there was a HopeKids event at HopeRides Ranch. My five-year-old daughter, Victoria, loves, loves, loves horseback riding. We have been unable to afford the cost of therapeutic riding in the last year, so we jumped at the opportunity to have a day with her favorite activity in the entire universe. Little did I know that opportunity would be a complete game changer for my daughter’s future. While at the event, we met a teen with the same disorder that Victoria has. After the surprise that someone else had the same uncommon diagnosis settled, the young lady and her mom began to share some invaluable information they have learned in managing the issues the disorder brings. They shared resources, personal experiences, and lots of stories of “I wish I had known ... when I/my daughter was Victoria’s age.” I was no less than overwhelmed and near tears. I got home and immediately got to work. I contacted physical therapists who had been personally recommended and set up evaluations. Pretty intensive therapy began, and Victoria is leaps and bounds ahead of where she was when we started--specifically because of the knowledge and understanding the therapists had with my daughter’s issues.
