Schedule Changes and Other Stuff

Bunch of schedule changes so here is what I THINK is upcoming as of 12/16;

12/17 GCHS Varsity
Come out and support the Glen Cove Varsity Girls at home, 6:00 Friday.
If anyone wants to go and needs a ride to and from talk to GraceAnne or her Dad.

12/19 CYO Game Rescheduled
St Agnes Game has been moved to 1/6 in RVC at 7:45.
If you get a chance watch the Maggie Dixon Classic.
Rutgers v TX A&M 12:00 noon ESPNU
UConn v OSU 2:30pm ESPNU
Later Stanford plays TN at 7:00pm ESPN2

12/22 SL Game being Rescheduled
Not finalized yet but conflict with 6th grade concert necessitates rescheduling of Crusaders Super League game. Also, no practice.

1/2 PRACTICE
Stay in shape, eat well, work on your game if at all possible. The next scheduled practice is more than 2 weeks away on 1/2, time yet to be determined.

I think there is a CYO game on this day at home against St Elizabeth as well, pretty sure.

1/3 SL Game
8:30 Monday night Super League game at Island Garden against a good Garden City team.

1/6 St Agnes CYO Game
This is the game that was originally scheduled for 12/19.

Coach Hudson will open the gym over the break so stay tuned for that.

Summer Camps

Time to start thinking about summer 2011 camps... NAH!

Some of the camps are already putting together their 2011 summer schedules. As I find camps I will post them on the Storm blog just so that all the parents are aware of them. Some of the girls have done camps and had a really good time, learned a lot, gained skills and confidence as well as made friends. As the camps accumulate I will list them under "camps" on the right side of this page so that parents can check them out as the summer approaches.

Princeton Overnight Camp just put its schedule up. Nobody has to miss any school this year if they want to attend this camp. Woody and Stone have gone the past two years and really have had a lot of fun. Feel free to ask them or the Woods/McStone families about their experience if you or your daughter are interested.  There has also been a skills camp added for the weekend of June 10th. Personally, Remi and I have GraceAnne do it just so that we can say our daughter attended Princeton.

Exciting Game!

Not easy to overcome going scoreless in the first quarter, being down 17-2 at the half. Storm did it though going on a thrilling 21-6 run and tying the game with 3:47 left on the clock! It was an exciting and improbable comeback after a very slow start but not enough to beat a very good, very tough St Patrick's team. Storm got in foul trouble and didn't have enough left in the tank to finish the job, the loss brings the record to 9-1. The girls should be extremely proud of themselves for how they played, especially in the third, never giving up, keeping their composure, not giving an inch.

Some losses are tougher to take than others but this was not one of them. Losses, overcoming obstacles whatever they are, should be seen as opportunities to learn, grow and adapt. Storm has not seen a lot of adversity the past few seasons so it should be very interesting to see how the girls use this opportunity to become better players and better teammates.

Glen Cove Girl's Varsity Basketball opens its season today at Glen Cove High School at 4:30pm. It's a great chance for the girls to see what varsity level competition will be like and to support the team at the same time.

GO STORM!
