Well I guess I've been away long enough to keep people from checking this thing daily... You know you have been, waiting anxiously to hear me bitch and moan about not getting everything I expect out of Ultimate lately. Well, things have been changing for the better recently. Not everything, but "things."
We got a few guys back that had been abroad last semester. That was pretty exciting for me since it means I have my workout partner back. The Ying to that Yang (or whatever that even means) is that we lost a few of our freshmen to coursework and the fine arts. It would be nice if we could actually build this team instead of constantly losing the number we gain...
Anyway, practice has been fairly productive for the ones who have been there. It's definitely worn on me recently and I guess the reason I'm back on here is a few things Coach D told me. He knows I've been having trouble getting fired up about the season and there are many reasons for it, not just a lack of progress. It just made me think about what I am supposed to be for this team and if I'm really filling that role as well as I could be. I thought about it while I worked last night on my cycle trainer and I realize I probably need to work harder. It's not all physical though. I've never been a huge emotional leader, since I tend to be fairly even keel and keep to myself on the field, but I think it's something I may need to improve by April.
I'll try to work on keeping this thing updated. Plans for the Spring:
WUFF Camp
Shippensburg Steakfest
Huck of the Irish
Sectionals
Regionals (?)
D-III Nationals (?)
Oh, and this is really cool: http://www.nytimes.com/2009/01/28/dining/28bacon.html?no_interstitial.
