Congrats to our team for turning in such a stupendous performance yesterday at the East Tennessee Epilepsy Foundation's Mud Volleyball Tournament! Out of 10 matches, we won 3 (the other teams didn't show up, so we won by default). However, we did lose the other 7 with a great deal of style!*
The players on our team:
Randy Tyree, candidate for Sheriff and former Knoxville Mayor
Mark Harmon, Knox County Commissioner
Bob Becker, Knoxville City Councilman
Andrew Graybeal, Candidate for Property Assessor
Kevin Spooner
Olivia and Phoebe Spooner
Megan and Scott Lappas
Dan Schuh
Amy Broyles, Candidate for County Commissioner
*Expect us to score more wins in the election next month!
This was the most fun I have had in a long, long time! I'll definitely be back next year!
