I wasn’t planning to write about this event at all. My trip to the European Championship got cut short, and this wasn’t exactly meant to be a big deal. But after 4 straight losses, we stormed back with slam after slam, grabbing 3rd place by just 0.12 VPs. That kind of drama… hard not to write about it 🤣.
The Super Collegiate Cup is a new event, only in its second year. Teams are formed by alumni from the same university, bringing back many old friends who had stepped away from bridge. This year also added a "mixed schools" division, shout-out to my amazing teammates who agreed to switch categories just for me 🙏. They even topped the prelims and made the finals, so I didn’t fly all the way back from Philly just to play the consolation 🤣.
Speaking of Philly, I was still playing at the Summer NABC just 3 days ago. Now I’m back home, squeezing in the Collegiate Cup finals as a warm-up before flying to Denmark for the World Championships next week 🤣. With such a tight schedule, any chance to practice with my partner (aka husband), Eric, is priceless 🥹.
Anyway, let’s dive into the slams from these 2 days!
