The Texas Stampede wheelchair rugby team has been making waves at the Code of Honor Cup in Louisville, Kentucky, this weekend. After a strong start, winning their first two matches, they faced off against the University of Michigan Adaptive Sports Team today in a tightly contested game. Despite showing resilience, the Stampede fell short in a 55–49 loss. Head coach Gabriel Garcia reflected on the challenges his team faced, saying, "Tough day for the team. We had a difficult time running our sets. We need to come together tomorrow and play like we know how."

Looking to rebound, the Stampede entered the crossovers with a chance to advance to the championship game. Their opponents, WWAR, provided a tough challenge, and despite their best efforts, the Stampede couldn’t close out the game, losing 51–47. With the loss, Texas finds themselves in the 3rd/4th place rematch tomorrow against Michigan. 

The Stampede, with their fierce determination and passion for the sport, will surely look to bounce back and give it their all in the final game. For more information on the team and their journey, fans can visit www.fearthesteer.org
