Month: May 2008

  • Ah, so BFA returns with wins. So good.
    Guys soccer got 1st and girls got 3rd. Bruce and Sang Jin were among several to make the all tourney team. Both of them also had a couple goals during the championship games. Girls had several ties and at least two games that went into double overtime sudden death types. They came back quite late last night, tired but happy from their wins.

    Track also came back yesterday. The guys got 2nd in Division II, and counting points without divisions, got 3rd out of 24 teams. Girls got 10th out of 23 teams. It has been quite the turnaround year for track. Trevor ran a 2:02 in the 800 meter. He was on fire, and for that, he won gold. It was an amazing race to watch. Everybody was way happy with the turnout of finals this year, and have their fingers crossed for next year.

    These last two weeks are going to go by fast. Ah well, everybody will enjoy it.

  • Soccer left for Championships yesterday. So far, the guys have won both of their games, against Aviano and Bitburg. Girls beat Aviano and tied SHAPE. Tomorrow, we hope, they will win both their games and then go one to the final round on Saturday. Track leaves for Finals tomorrow. 36 athletes are going, 24 qualified and 12 alternates. Trevor and Sean have qualified, while Ben is going as an alternate. The dorm will feel rather empty this Friday without many of the guys.Track is also hoping to win, as they have quite the good chance of the guys winning. Also, 10 school records are within reach of being broken. So they are psyched.

    Last night, all the guys in Sonne and all the girls in Blauen got up at 2 AM. They grabbed their stuff and did their best to sneak out of their respective dorms and into each other's dorms. It was modestly succesful. And people enjoyed it. Plus, Blauen had heard a whiff of the plan earlier in the week and had prepared food for the day, whenever it came. So the guys really enjoyed getting hot and tasty biscuits. Though one of the Blauen RAs did slam a pan on the ground at 6:30 AM, supposedly an accident, but it woke everybody up.

    These last two weeks are so stinking busy. Parties, practices, small groups, everything is wrapping up and making it hectic. And kinda sad, seeing who's leaving. Anyways, another post will come with final results when they come.

    Good Luck!

  • Last thursday was a day off. So, of course, everybody got up earlier then normal. They loaded up the vans and drove to Europa park. They got there in a decent amount of time, not being the last dorm to arrive, but definitly not the first. All the guys got their tickets and the group became individuals seeking after a fun day of rides and food and comradeship. And, all reports being accounted for, it was pretty good. Everybody rode tons of rides and ate tons of food and hung out with their friends and were thus granted a blast. Exiting the park was quite interesting, as there were many street performers to watch and get pictures with. That, and the fact that Josh M. fell into the fountain.

    Saturday was the Big Home Event, with Soccer playing Wiesbaden and Track going up against several teams. Soccer won all their games, and boys track came in first, while females came in third. Trevor once again qualified in an event, the open 400, making the total of track athletes going to finals this year 15. Which is a lot more then has happened in the past few years. Brian was creeked on Sunday, and Austin was creeked on Tuesday. Lukas was baptized on Sunday. Another big soccer home game is coming up, pretty much the biggest one of the year against the undefeated and unscored-on Hiedleberg. And JSB is this Sunday. May is such a busy month, oh my.
