CMC -- LETS GO TO THE LAKE..


Hey Central friends -- wouldn't today be awesome (well the weather is great here in E.ville IN) to skip work and go to the lake..
Remember all the great times we had out there.. it didn't matter which "group" you were in -- the lake was fun for all!
This is the time of the year when I think back to the good ole days at fayettenam... and wish that for just a day or two we could all go back and pretend we weren't grown up's and just do it like we used to... No, life isn't bad at all right now.. but life was just different back then.. and ohhhhhh sooooooo wonderful! Hope y'all are doing well! And the memories from Central will be with me forever -- both good and bad and I wouldn't change a thing!!

the end is almost here...

Year 4 of USI is coming to a close... I feel as tho, I should be moving on -- because before "real life" my life was measured in basically 4 years.. 4 years of hs, 4 years of college, 2 years of grad school... and now i've been in the real world at the same place for 4 years... but I am not ready to leave, and hopefully I won't...still waiting for 2010-11 contract.
Anyways -- this year has been something else -- I feel like I could say that every year..
The fall was - as to be expected, disappointing... mens soccer got a new coach whom actually made (or tried to make) the team act like decent human beings, those that didn't understand the concept of self respect or respect of others were booted and asked to move on w/o USI soccer... the woman, I'm going to just throw this out there, were one of the most TALENTED teams in our conference -- but it just didn't really do anything for the winning.. i've never seen a team with that much talent unable to win...it was sad.
Winter came and went as did basketball..very sad year.. but just the other day a group of baskeball guys were sitting outside our athletic training room and they were being all loud, it just felt like Jeron's spirit was here... it was pretty cool.
and now spring has sprung and baseball/softball are winding down... it doesn't seem possible.. the year has gone way to quickly..
baseball has conference games at Quincy this weekend, not a fan of the bushleague quincy team.. hopefully we can get a 4 game sweep this weekend.. head to the conference tournament next weekend and do alright there.. then possibly host the regional.
What a year it has been...an incredible ride. Honestly, the best part of the year, for me is the way I have gotten so much closer to God. It is truly amazing when you can lead on God to show you the way, things just are so much easier, knowing at the end of the day -- it's not about me!

#1... 31-9.. i♥myteam..

I was just telling my mother last night (via text) that life is so great! My job is so wonderful. It has been up and down this spring. I have loved and hated my job... however, I know that God's plan for me is way better than anything I could plan for myself!!
So this past weekend baseball traveled to KC for a four game series against Rockhurst. For those of you that have never witnessed Rockhurst baseball..you are in for a treat. They talk entirely to much until the score is no longer in their favor.. in game on we were down going into the 7th and our junior catcher (and one of my FAV's) Dylan hit a 2 run BOMB, to tie up the game.. we went on to score 8 more runs in the 11th to win game 1.. and game 2 that day.. Sunday was another hard fought battle, but Dyl came thru in the clutch again.. yeah -- he's good!! And we left the sunny hot confines of the Rock taking all four games --- CHINO's it was for the boys.. having swept the series Arch said the boys could have Chinese food.. and he kept his promise.
This week Dyl and Taylor were player of the week and pitcher of the week -- Great start to the week I'd say.. http://www.glvcsports.com/news/2010/4/12/BSB_0412102544.aspx
Yesterday we traveled to Northern Kentucky for a non-conference/regional battle of the bests.. we split with them.. they will do some damage to soft throwing curve ball pitchers.. they are some BIG boys and they could play some ball.. i don't think they were used to our speed at all.. It was an ok day, would have been awesome taking 2 from them.. we will see them again at Conference and Regionals.
Speaking of Regionals.. we are officially #1!!! for the first time since i've been here and it is freakin awesome! If we can stay #1 we can host regionals.. and that would be SOOO SWEEEEET!! tons of hard work, but soooo worth it! http://gousieagles.com/news/2010/4/14/BB_0414103456.aspx
