pike pike pike

pike has begun.

2hr Open practice last weekend. Worked on really basic stuff, tired everyone out with some intensity. Got some basics for the season down. That we'll repeat.

It was a good showing. got the legs moving, didn't suck it up entirely as captain. Oh, and the hairy team beat the non-hairy team in the scrimmage. YAY HAIR! Samson rules, apparently.

This weekend, Pikes X and Y will attend the Beth Coltman Memorial this weekend. Apparently, this is a coed tournament with some open and women's teams thrown in.

I'm already getting excited in a whole new way for the season. Moving from ideas to actions to reactions to (and on and on). There is so much to work on and do... I'm very happy with being in this position. I will work to do it well. This team deserves it.

In the larger picture, there is so much to do with captaining pike that this blog is getting lazy. Stupid blog. Anyway, the blog is slow for now. Captaining is ever-so-much-more important. Workouts are still going strong, but there is far less time to type about it all.

I think dunkin donuts coffee tastes like burning. Open in case of emergency.

A present for you from Henlopen: http://www.flickr.com/photos/brandonwu/2430598123/in/set-72157604653864358/

Good playing you guys, hopefully it'll be more fun playing against your whole team this year than it has been in the past.

Yup. You weren't where I thought you were on that play.

As much as I'd love to take credit for that, it was J-raffe's grab.

(Also, by "more fun" I meant that maybe we'll have closer games, not in any other sense that occurred to me on rereading that)

it's all fun and gamed until someone says fun.
