This is one of my favorite times of the year because it’s my favorite time of basketball season. Right now we are in the middle of league play and we are often playing three games a week. It’s the complete opposite of the start of the season when you usually spend most of the time in practice and have only a few games. So far the season has been going great as we have a record of 14-4(7-1 in the Liberty League), which currently puts us at #2 in the east region. The biggest thing right now is making sure that we are all staying healthy which can be difficult this time of the year as there are so many viruses going around. Fortunately our health center does great of keeping us aware of preventive measures, it’s also a great place to drop in and get free cough drops/medicine. It’s interesting that the major thing that they tell students to do is get plenty of rest, which is exactly what I have been finding difficult to do so far this semester. I’m taking two courses which are necessary for me to get my coaching certificate and they are both at 8:30 in the morning. So Monday through Friday I have to get up at a time which I consider being very early, but I guess it’s a good thing because it will make the transition to life after SLU a little easier. I advise everyone to make sure they get plenty of rest this time of the year because being sick is not much fun.
