Pre Season Activities

 

We're so lucky that pre season gives us the opportunity to not only practice together but also to get to know each other before everyone gets busy with their classes, friend groups and work! It's especially nice integrating the new freshmen to the team in a more relaxed environment.  Everyone moves into their respective rooms across campus, but only the Fall athletes are here for the first two weeks and we do a lot of team activities during this time in addition to practices.


We helped out at the MUHS practices a couple of days before their home opener, which is always a lot of fun, and they were STATE CHAMPS last year!!




We did speed dating on one of our first days as a good get-to-know-you better activity.  This year we also shared a fun fact about yourself that you think NO ONE on the team knows, so that's tougher for the upperclassmen and that was a lot of fun! 





The team went out to nearby Lake Dunmore for a beach day; although the weather wasn't all that great, it was still a fun afternoon off!  Then, we had a pool "workout" but it was more of a diving expose, I think?! We also learned that a couple of our Californians know how to "water polo tread!"
