Why is XmlPullParser.getName() returning null?

While I am attempting to parse XML using the XmlPullParser the getName() method is returning null. I checked to make sure the inputstream picked up the file okay and it did. Here is my code:

public ArrayList<Card> parseXMLAndStoreIt(Context myContext) throws XmlPullParserException, IOException {
    int event, end;
    XmlPullParserFactory xmlFactoryObject = XmlPullParserFactory.newInstance();
    xmlFactoryObject.setNamespaceAware(true);
    XmlPullParser myParser = xmlFactoryObject.newPullParser();
    ArrayList<Card> cardlist;
    String text=null;
    cardlist = new ArrayList<Card>();

    try{
        AssetManager mgr = myContext.getAssets();
        InputStream is = mgr.open("cardlist.xml");
        /* This was used to test if the xml was opened properly and the inputstream took it
        java.util.Scanner s = new java.util.Scanner(is).useDelimiter("\\A");
        while(s.hasNext()){
            Log.i("Scanner", s.nextLine());
        }
        */
        myParser.setInput(is, null);
        event = myParser.getEventType();

        while(event != XmlPullParser.END_DOCUMENT){
            Log.i("XMLParser", "Event Value: " + event);
            Log.i("XMLParser", "Parser Name: " + myParser.getName());//Failing here, getName returning null
            String name = myParser.getName();
            end = cardlist.size() - 1;
            Log.i("end", "" + cardlist.size());
            switch (event){
                case XmlPullParser.START_TAG:
                    cardlist.add(new Card());
                    Log.i("starttag", "start");
                    break;
                case XmlPullParser.TEXT:
                    text = myParser.getText();
                    Log.i("textxml", "getText");
                    break;
                case XmlPullParser.END_TAG:
                    if(name.equals("Class")){
                        cardlist.get(end).setHero(text);
                        Log.i("Classtest", name);
                    }else if(name.equals("Name")){
                        cardlist.get(end).setName(text);
                    }else if(name.equals("Ability")){
                        cardlist.get(end).setAbility(text);
                    }else if(name.equals("Mana")){
                        cardlist.get(end).setManacost(Integer.parseInt(text));
                    }else if(name.equals("Attack")){
                        cardlist.get(end).setAttack(Integer.parseInt(text));
                    }else if(name.equals("Health")){
                        cardlist.get(end).setHealth(Integer.parseInt(text));
                    }
                    break;
                default:
                    break;
            }
            event = myParser.next();
        }
    }catch (Exception e){
        Log.e("XMLParser", "Failure to parse XML data");
    }
    return cardlist;
}

Here is a snippet of the xml I am reading:
