Happy Chrismahanukwanzakah!!!

Hello everyone! I noticed we've been a little lacking on the new posts, this is mostly due to a number of things 1) end of the season sadness 2) end of season reflection happiness 3) coaches with lots of work/on vacation 4) players experiencing the wonderfulness that is finals time. So to keep everyone up to date lets start with the end of the season recap. Where we last left off the team was about to head to Maine to play Bowdoin. I can't even explain how amazing the experience was, from the bus ride up to the delicious team dinner, it was unforgettable. The game itself was so much fun, which is not something you would hear from a team that was kicked out of the tournament. With our team the game really was the peak of our season and just showed that hard work and no fear can get you very far in life.

The only sad part came when the realization set in that I would never again get a chance to play with our seniors again. Never again will I sit on Steph Smith's pads and let her hit me in the back; Never again will I be able to yell "Nice, I like it" across the field to Kerri and watch her pose; Never again will I be able to roll on the ground and shoot imaginary guns making laser sounds with Hillary; Never again will I have the opportunity to watch Casey take a shot, and me more excited then ever; Never again will I be able to see the Midget kick her little midget feet with joy. Every team goes through the same thing when they lose such an amazing group of seniors, and for our team it is no different. We will move and make more history while continuing to be just as weird, in their memory (and only slightly because that's just how we are).

Congratuations goes out to Hillary "Child Bauer" Paul and Allison "Midget" Shields for being only our second and third All-Americans in five years of the program as well as Coach Reed for being named the Regional Coach of the Year!! That's all for now, expect some updates as we get closer to spring season, or if anything else cool happens that we feel like talking about! Happy Chrismahanukwanzakah to everyone!
