    I need to finish the line ups
    BAD3 turned in its best performance of the season by winning a decisive victory in the D division final at the Redwood Shores Dragon Boat Festival.  The first place performance was a very memorable one for the kids from Independence High School who made up the majority of BAD 3.

    The day got off to a brilliant start for BAD 3 who competed against some very strong opponents in the first heat.  BAD 3 gave the teams in this competitive bracket everything they could handle.  Jorge Cruz, Calvin Ly, Dennis Nguyen, and Steven Umali powered the way for BAD 3 who matched their opponents stroke for stroke throughout the race.  Unfortunately for BAD 3, technique fell off in the second half of the race and they were unable to keep up with their more seasoned adversaries.  Despite the rough patch at the half way point, BAD 3 was able to regroup behind the inspired racing of Elisha McIntosh, Robell Opilas, and Daniel Alarcon.  The end result was a very respectable fourth place finish in the first heat.
