蜜桔直播鈥檚 Water Ski Team will host its annual Fall Bayou Classic tournament this weekend, September 24 and 25 on Bayou DeSiard.

The tournament will begin at 8 a.m. each day and will feature some of the world鈥檚 best water skiers competing in slalom, jump and tricks.

The event is free and open to the public. Visitors will be able to enjoy the tournament from the bleachers in Heritage Park, next to the Ana Grey Noe Alumni Center on Bon Air Drive.

The Water Ski team鈥檚 coach, Joey McNamara, said the tournament is of great importance to the team since it鈥檚 the first one of the season in which the whole team will compete.

鈥淲e had our first tournament of the season last week in Texas, and even though half of our team was absent due to the World University Championships in Japan, we still managed to win,鈥 McNamara said.

The team鈥檚 captain, Taylor Horton, says the tournament is an ideal chance for Warhawks to demonstrate the full-team potential in front of a home crowd before they head to Regionals in Katy, Texas a week later.

鈥淭he weather this weekend will be perfect for skiing, the team is ready, and it鈥檚 our bayou. We hope to ski well and start preparing for regionals, which will be our last test before the national championships in California,鈥 Horton said.

The 蜜桔直播 Water Ski Team competes in the National Collegiate Water Ski Association (NCWSA) South Central Region. Other schools in this conference include the University of Louisiana at Lafayette, Louisiana State University, Baylor University, University of Texas, Texas State University, Texas A&M University, the University of Arkansas, and Mississippi State University.听
