The Augustana basketball teams are heading to Brazil this week and will be blogging on the trip. Chaney Tambling is blogging for the women’s team and you can catch their blog posts on the D3hoops.com Daily Dose. Mark Roth is blogging for the men’s team.

Well we’ve had a great couple of days here in Rio. After a fabulous buffet dinner last night in our hotel, today we have a relaxing day. The sun is out and we have a game so we’ll be hanging out by the pool, getting nice tans, and preparing to get a win.

The game is at about 3:00 p.m., so we’ll spend the day conserving energy and after the game we will go to dinner and walk down to shops and places on the beach. Next time I write hopefully we’ll be celebrating two wins here in Brazil!!
