Happy Saint Paddy's Day

We have had an eventful time since my last post. The team had a great time with family and faculty friends during our parents' weekend, but had rough results in the two matches that day. We are dealing with some injuries right now and bounced back from those losses with an excellent 9-0 win. The guys have stepped up to the challenge of "playing up" while others are injured and we are getting better every day.

In the process of getting better, I have the team ask themselves 2 questions every day. What have I done to get better today? What have I done to help a teammate get better today? These two questions drive our preparation.

We are getting ready for our final match before spring break and it is going well. The guys are breaking through barriers that at one point were out of reach and the injured are beginning to practice some again. Midterms are next week so we have no matches and will take at least one day off during the week and do some light practices because the trip to Orlando is full of matches. I'll preview our spring break matches next week.
