Like all of Tribal Games, Thursday’s Great Iroquois Boy’s Track Meet was as much about psyche, as it was about competition, as the following gallery of each tribe will attest:
-
- Onondaga
-
- Seneca
-
- Cayuga
But, of course, there were also the events. A total of ten contests, plus a tribal cheer.
“I liked all of them,” said Niccolo, of the Onondaga,
but maybe my favorite was Dizzy Bat; I thought it was really funny!”
Andrew S, of the Tuscarora, went with “The Cracker and Whistle. It was a fun challenge, physically. Last year, I didn’t know how to whistle. This year, I did it!
The track meet was won by the Mohawk, as the tribe in red is attempting to snap a 13-year winless streak. The Onondaga, originally announced as the winners as part of a scoring error, ended up second. (results HERE)
Among the camper’s other favorite events:
Liam and Isaiah: “The Cracker, Whistle and Pudding”
Abe and Seigo: “The Shoe Scramble”
Cole: “Leap Frog”
Patricius: “They were all challenging, but funny!”
