Lesson #1: No matter how polite you are, NEVER talk to the refs

Howdy followers!

The answer is no, you didn't read the title wrong. I learned a very, very valuable lesson on Wednesday; never talk to the refs. Even if you do use your manners. Especially when you're already angry and in the heat of the moment. Raising you voice isn't the best idea either. As you can assume, I received a technical in Wednesday's game at Heidelberg. Not one of my finer moments I might say. But to clear things up, it wasn't your typical cursing or throwing of the ball. After an and-1 call, I looked at the ref and said call them both ways, please (a little louder than just a friendly conversation). Nonetheless, I learned very quickly to never, EVER talk to the refs again. Luckily that didn't effect the outcome of the game and we left a very hostile environment with a W!

Last night the team went to Bucca to eat before we headed over to Camp Cheerful. Food is very important this team and whenever we can get around food, watch out. It's a free for all. Coach was even generous enough to order dessert and so there were about 4 different desserts rotating around; cheesecake, chocolate cake, apple cinnamon stuff, and last, but not least, Tiramisu. Tiramisu is the best creation, to me and Pup that is. We got to share the entire family size dessert to ourselves. Actually, she ate about 3/5 of it and I ate the other 2/5.

Hopefully everyone can come out tomorrow, SUNDAY, to see us play against our hated rivals, Capital. Because of the snow, our game got rescheduled for 3 oclock on Sunday. The season, thus far, has been pretty decent. Tomorrow we start the second round of the OAC and hopefully finish as well as we started! I just want to thank all of the continuous support we get from the community members, students, family members and staff!! It is greatly appreciated by each and every one of us!!

Stay warm and stay safe!! We look forward to seeing you all tomorrow!!
Aww Jackets!!
