Not only did we beat Monctonin three straight sets, but it was by far our best game of the season. Our serve receive was on cue, we hit hard and smart, our setter was on fire and we were serving tough. However, I think it was the team's spirit and energy that truly led us to the win. Everyone was 100% focused on the task at hand and what they needed to do as individuals and as a team to be successful.The first set was a battle; we had to fight hard for to earn our points every rallye but we pulled through and took the set. And things just went from there. Our performance got increasingly better as the game went along. We were invincible.
I just wanted to take a second to talk about our Think Pink initiative. As you may have heard, assistant coach Erin Crossland and I will both be cutting our ponytails (about 8-10 inches of hair) off February 2nd at out annual Think Pink game (which we got fabulous new pink jersey for :) ). Our fundraising goal this year is 2000$ not including what we will raise at the event itself. We held a bake sale last week and we raised 475$. Brian Lewis from Simmons Mattress Gallery made a very 150$ donation to the team. We brought him plate of delicious baked goods which he really seemed to enjoy. We will be holding other fundraising activities after exam season (ughhh...). I will keep you all updated, don't worry.
Tata for now,
Jodie :)
