Hi everyone!

Kathleen here. I am so excited to be back on campus! After working from 6am-5pm nearly everyday this summer, as well as swimming and lifting, I was certainly more than ready to come back to school. I did not swim as much as I would have liked, as my club practice times conflicted with the rec team that I was coaching every morning. So basically I swam for a little more than an hour 5 times a week. I did however really get into lifting. I lifted every other day all summer. The funny thing is that when I got back to campus I was talking to Aubrey and I realized I did the wrong lift all summer! It turns out Drew sent me like a separate individual email to me with the link to our weight program, except it wasn’t ours; it was softball’s. Sooo I was doing new stuff we’ve never done before- like hang cleans! It was definitely an experience. Anyways, whenever I wasn’t working I pretty much hung out with my friends, went to the beach, or spent time with my new baby Godson. I’m excited to be back in the water here, I missed you all so much! I also can’t wait to be back on deck cheering for you all! It’s so weird calling myself a sophomore and not being the baby on deck anymore- my apartment, with Barb and Siena, we always forget that we’re no longer the freshies. We live in Stac with a bunch of other athletes but we haven’t ventured out to meet any of them yet. The people above us are wicked loud and annoying so we don’t really like them all that much for that. Then again, we’re really loud. But oh well no one lives below us this year so it’s all good. Looking forward to a great season! See you all at practice!
Bye!
