Surprise!

The girls definitely got "punk'd" the other week by Coach Janice.  I'm attaching the videos below, which explain everything.

The first video is sort of long, and the beginning part not that interesting, but it's worth watching the entire thing.

Scrimmage videos

These videos were taken a few weeks ago at the first scrimmage of the season.  The gray team provided great chants and footage... they are a spirited bunch led by Jordan Reid.

It's so convenient how nicely Bria Green's name fits into Andrea Waters' spot from previous seasons

I cant feel my legs coach!

Day one of DSU SOFTBALL started off great with Kelsey Lewis crushing her mile time!! When asked to run a 7:30 mile, Lewis said no thanks, I will do way better than that and set the standard for the team! Here is a video of Kelsey after a cool down lap and her track star time!

Later on during the day, the Team competed for their 300 yard shuttles with 3 seniors, 1 sophomore and 1 freshman leading the way! Congrats ladies on passing your times.. After the shuttles, a deal was made for the girls to complete a mile in under 6:30.. BOY DID THEY DO THAT!!!

So today on day two the girls get to run their mile as a team in under 8 minutes!!!!

Senior Jordan Reid who passed her shuttle times ices up in her dorm room in preperation for the team mile today!! Jordan "Awkward Sally" Reid will lead the way for the hornets in the race for their uniforms!

Seniors Casey Beighley, Tawny Reeger and Junior Skye Boris take some relaxing time in the training room whirlpool. These 3 spend many days in here thinking of master plans of attack for the hornets on game day as well as for conditioning!! Keep thinking hard ladies!! :0)

This was made immediately after conditioning finished! It was definitely made with love and shows how they really feel :0)

housecleaning and IRENE!!!

DSU Softball showed up in HORNET SOFTBALL fashion at the football field yesterday afternoon to share their windscreen expertise! Putting up the windscreen around the track was a small task compared to the fence cap and work done to the Hornets nest! Thanks to the help of the DSU SOFTBALL TEAM, Alumni stadium is in wind free condition! :0) Good job Hornets!! Stay tuned for video of the hornets and their first workouts today at 3:30 at the track!

"Thank you Hurricane Irene! We needed a brush up on our windscreen duties! At least it wasn't tarp duty!"

What did you do during IRENE? Room 1204 that consists of 4 seniors had a coloring session :0) way to stay in the lines ladies!!! ~ Jordan Reid, Chelsea Stern, Tawny Reeger, Bre Parr

Team Bonding

With the football season upon us and Hurricane Irene visiting this past weekend, help was needed to put up the windscreens at Alumni Stadium.

The softball team very graciously volunteered to help and were out there this afternoon.  I took a few quick photos of them - it was a great time for everyone to catch up from summer break and for the newcomers to get use to everyone off of the field.

 This fence wouldn't be bare once the softball girls got to it!

 Apparently this form  worked best?

You can't really tell from this picture, but senior Jordan Reid (green shirt and jeans) was holding and handing out the zip-ties.  I guess when you're the reigning MEAC Player of the Year (for 2010 and 2011!) you don't have to do the dirty work. :-) 

 Windscreens look great!

I know Coach Janice got some more photos and video, so she'll post them when she gets a chance.
