Fall Ball Finished

We are now done with practices for the 2008 fall-ball season.  We’ve spent 12 days over the past few weeks getting to know each other, teaching fundamentals, and beginning our strength and conditioning program. We are now in our fall off-season and our players will continue working hard on their owe honing their softball skills and building off of the momentum we have established this fall.

Our coaching staff is extremely excited about this year’s team.  The returning players and incoming are striving to accomplish our team goals and continue to raise team expectations!

Check back to see what the girls are doing in their off season.

The Scavenger Hunt

The basketball and softball teams joined this afternoon to have an intra-team video scavenger hunt challenge on campus. The players were partnered in teams of 4-5 from their respective team.   Each team carried along a digital video camera and a list of challenges to carry out and objects to obtain within a 60 minute time period. The tasks varied in difficulty, and the more difficult the task, the more points awarded. To give you an idea of how much fun it was, some of the tasks on their list included performing a movie scene on the theatre stage; playing duck, duck, goose on the grassy knoll; finding a professor and serenading him/her with their favorite song; and even finding/bringing back a prom dress. It was a great time for everyone and it gave the players a chance to do some team bonding and meet new people. We compiled their videos into a short movie… Check it out for some good laughs.

A very wet alumni game…

Several alumnae joined us last Saturday for the annual alumni game. Unfortunately, we were rained out and could not finish the game but that didn’t stop us from BBQ-ing and enjoying dinner. It was fun for the inning we were able to play and we were excited to see and spend time with former teammates, coaches, and staff.
