Tryouts

Tryouts are 5 weeks away. I plan on getting out and doing some track workouts in the next month to be ready.

Is my spot on the team secure? I would venture to say no, it isn't. At the very least that should be the mindset, right? Just because I am a returner, shouldn't guarantee my spot on the team. I am a second year player and I certainly haven't earned the luxury of a secure spot that a lot of the Chain veterans have. So, I will be coming out to tryouts fired up and ready to prove that last year was no fluke.

Getting to start on defense against Ironside in the semifinals of Natties was amazing and I worked hard for it, but there are way too many good players on this team to think that what I did last year earns me a spot this year. I now have a season's experience; how I use that experience will shape my 2009 season (and I have some high personal expectations).
