We still need to strengthen ourselves in the sprints. We're pushing hard in those events this week in practice.

The field events also should be much improved this season as Nikki Colombo has looked strong in practice. Along with Tina Herrera, Erin Johnson and Rachael Smith, the lady throwers are on the verge of making their mark in helping the team to league victories.

Competing at this level is an honour. The skills we practice for these events are those we use in daily emergency responses.

We all thought it was funny when Caitlin said her off-season training for softball (at Marist) involves a lot of swimming workouts.
