Ravenclaw just won this round of quidditch! Way to go team! The role of Keeper was challenging for me, but I'm glad I played. It was fun being a part of the action.

Read for Quidditch

Quidditch is a ton of reading and I'm in the "low reading" position. I have no idea how the other players read so many books in a day. Two books per day is a lot more than I usually complete, so I'm in awe of them. Even so, it's fun being a part of the action.

Thanks, Keli! It's been a little crazy, but Deanna has been amazing at explaining my position.

I just looked at the final for our first match and I see that Hufflepuff beat Ravenclaw 1130 points to 1015 points. Valiant effort Ravenclaw! Let's beat Team Slytherin in this 2nd match!

Carmen, I just added my quidditch book to the "Moaning Myrtle books read" thread, so I think I did it correctly. I also added it to the unofficial spreadsheet. Was the incorrect? If so, please let me know and I won't add it there again.
