THE RUNDOWN
In the group's first STUNT competition since the middle of March, the Patriots went 2-0 and earned a spot in Saturday's Lone Star Conference Championship. DBU outscored its opponents 56-15, including a 24-point win over Texas A&M-Kingsville.
DBU VS TEXAS A&M-KINGSVILLE
DBU: 25 | KINGSVILLE: 1
The only point that the Patriots conceded to the Javelinas came in the first quarter, in a game where routines one through four were played the entire duration of the game. This allowed the group to hone their technique and get back into the swing of things after working towards the NCA. This morning marked DBU's third 20-point win over the Javelinas this year, having outscored them 74-7 this season.
ROBBIE GARCIA ON THEÂ FIRST WIN OF THE DAY
"I am so proud of our team and our ability to adapt. We have taken time off from STUNT, focusing on NCA, but our determination and unity has set us apart, helping us achieve success. We started this weekend on a high, and we're only getting started, hungry for more."
DBU VS ST. MARY'S
DBU: 31 | ST. MARY'S: 14
The Patriots earned points for partner stunts five, six, and seven, the three highest levels of partner stunts. In the second quarter, routines one through four were played just as they had been earlier in the day. In the third, the Patriots secured two points within two, on top of two solo points. DBU dominated the fourth quarter, coasting to a 17-point victory over the Rattlers and advancing to the LSC Championship.
EMMA TOMLIN ON THE GROUP'S 2-0 DAY
"I love getting to see the way our adaptability shines through our performance. Even when moments aren't perfect, we never fail to achieve our goals. This team's bond is indescribable, and I'm super excited to see how we finish our season."
