Dodgeball Tournement

Me and my freinds entered in a dodgeball tournement for our schools activity night, and I thought we were going to lose because we had to face a 9th grade team in the first round. But we beat them in the first round and had to face another 9th grade team after that and we beat them too so we thought we could possibly win this thing. So we face another 2 games against 8th graders and we won, but our winning streak had to come to an end we lost to last years 3rd place dodgeball team. Even though we lost we had another chance because double elimination so we knew we had to win our next games to make it. So we won once more but lost after that to an 8th grade team so we were eliminated and got 4th place. So next year are team is going again to go all the way since we were the last 7th grade in the tournement to survive against those teams. So next year since we are turning into a middle school so we gonna have the grades 6th, 7th, 8th graders there are team is already favored by students and teachers to win next year.
