Hello JacketNation,
I know I was totally supposed to blog a solid two weeks ago, but I was just waiting until there was lots to talk about, ya know? So practices have started out pretty amazing, and we are now about 11 practices in. 2 of which were in the dark, compliments of Hurricane Sandy. I propose routine practices in the dark, because we did sweeeeeet at our scrimmages! A wise man once said, "If you can catch a ball in the dark, you are going to be Michael Jordan in the light". Or something like that. So yes, last Thursday we traveled out to Tiffin for Game 1. I know, its only technically a scrimmage but we are valuing every minute of playing time this year as though it is a national championship. The dragons have handed it to us for the past two years I've been here, but Thursday they had no clue what hit them. Everyone coming together even though we have been taken out of post-season play, it was a great feeling. It really just enforced the fact that we are going to have a remarkable year, no matter what anyone on the outside tries to do! The momentum carried over to Sunday night's scrimmage (Game 2) vs Notre Dame College. It was a close game for a while, but eventually NDC couldn't keep up. Meltdown baby, meltdown.
Our competitive spirit and love of the game and each other has already carried us over the breaking point. We had a decision: fall apart or play every game as hard as possible. I think its pretty clear which one we chose.
