Hard Work Pays Off

As I've said previously, winning the MAC Championship is no longer the goal. The goal is to beat Cabrini and advance in the NCAA Tournament to compete for a National Title.

Many times during our workouts, we all just go through the motions and not have our full heart in it. This past week, the captains told us all to meet in the gym at 545 am. We stretched and then conditioned outside in the freezing weather.

It was one of the hardest workouts I have ever had to partake in. We were split up in teams and the winners got the right to compete and do more. Exhausted, light headed, and feeling like we were all going to puke, everyone on our team went 100%. When one man fell, we helped him back up.

The team grew today and we saw what we needed to do to become a National Champion.

Halloween Scrimmage and Updated Schedule

The first Halloween scrimmage was a huge success. Almost everyone dressed up in hilarious costumes and everyone who came had a blast. Team Scooby won the game with a score of 8-6. Check out some highlights from the game here...



Other then the Halloween scrimmage, we are now having captains practices a couple times a week and lifting three times a week. The team is working very hard for the season and everyone is anxious for the start. If we continue our hard work and dedication this team can go very far.

Halloween Practice

On Friday, November 8th, the lacrosse team will be doing an inter squad Halloween scrimmage. All of the players will be dressing up as something and we will have some fun on the field. It has been a little while since any of us have played but I'm sure that if you go you'll have a good time with some good laughs.

The Halloween practice is something that many teams partake in and is a way to bring back the fun in the game that some people seem to lose due to their will to just win. Here is a video of a college doing their Halloween practice.
