Here we Go!

Well practice is officially under way. We just finished our 5th workout in three days and the team is getting after it! The only thing that could make it any better would be for mother nature to give us a few days of 60 degree weather. It's hard to believe that opening day is just three weeks away. Time flies! We leave Feb. 12 for Orlando for a tournament hosted by UCF. We've opened up there the last few years and it's been great. We get out of the cold for a few days and get to face some great competition.

GO PATRIOTS!

Well the Holiday's are behind us and we have one more week until we get underway. I can't wait until these kids get back on campus so we can get to work. First practice is scheduled for Jan. 18, cross your fingers for good weather.

A Senior's Perspective

I can't believe how fast the fall semester went. Time has been flying by and it's especially scary for me because I'm graduating in May and I need to find a real job (too bad no one will pay me to play softball in the real world!). I think our fall season went really well. And our fitness test results at the end of the season really show that we became a better team this fall through every workout and practice. It's so cool to watch everyone get better and better everyday, especially the freshmen. I can't even begin to explain how excited I am about the new field! It's going to be awesome to play on a sweet field for my last season at Mason and get lots of W's on it.
It's nice to be back in New Jersey for winter break and spend time with my family during the holidays. I miss my teammates and coaches and want to wish them all a Merry Belated Christmas and a Happy New Year. We'll all be back together in a couple weeks to continue working hard and have a successful 2009 season!
