Soccer

I play intramural soccer. I've been the goalkeeper for this team since I was a student and have seen the team change over the years. It's fun to get away from the office and interact with students (since my move to my current job, I don't get to be with students as much which is hard sometimes).

I have to confess that I act old sometimes, though. I am the only staff person on the team and my schedule is just different. I think having a game at 10pm at night is crazy. I was there, though. Also, playing the final game at 9:30pm at night in the pouring rain is crazy. But, I was there then, too.

And I'm glad I was, because on Tuesday night, in a muddy soccer field (it stopped raining at half-time, fortunately), we won the championship game. Here's our team:

And to my # 1 fan, Mark...thanks for going out in the freezing cold weather and in the rain to cheer us on. I'll let you wear my Intramural Champion Tshirt sometime.
