LATER IN THE DAY – AFTER PRACTICE
The harder we practiced today the harder it rained. When we finished a huge wind started to howl. Then they all did push-ups and sit-ups together while being pelted with cold raindrops hurled from the black and gray clouds that were by then not far [...]

The game was played in wet and somewhat muddy conditions. Everyone had their warrior look going pretty good by the end.
GAME #13 – (#2) CSU 7 – (#6) CU 5 Our record is now 11-2 –

HOLY PEAK TO PEAK BAT MAN
What a game! I thought we had won games in just about every way imaginable this season, but I was wrong. We found a new way today. We [...]

We are coming down the stretch.
I don’t want us to “over train”. I even told two players today that I don’t care if they even practice this week. I want their focus to be to get healthy. I used to have a no practice, no play rule, but that went out [...]

During practices, I often ask them verbal questions about what we are doing that they all (should) know the answer to. If everyone, to a man, knows the specific answer to a specific question, then aren’t we always on the same page?

FORM FOLLOWS FUNCTION
When we are truly successful as a team we are also a cohesive family. It might sound strange to say that I demand that we function as a true “Family” unit, but I do. Within that I am Papa. We are only as good as we are all [...]

I do not have any idea why, but I am more calm tonight than I was last night. I must admit that I was a little shook up when our big Defenseman Schmidy (#37) went down yesterday. He has been my anchor in so many ways, he is a truly gifted leader, [...]

CSU 6 UCSB 4 – Colorado State University – USLIA 2003 National Champions
In a somewhat less than beautiful game we emerged as the “last team standing”, true to our “rallying cry” from day one, and used every time we [...]
May 14,2003
I’m not sure of the exact number, but of our 18 victories this year, way more than half had both teams under 10 goals for the contest. Most all of the games we played were one or two goal games. These are nerve racking, but I enjoy the intensity, I really do. I [...]
