Picture of the Week

Tai teaching Zumba class on Tuesday evening.  Will again state that Tai can move!  Anya (one of my students) and I joined the class.  Anya: "The best part is that nobody cares what you look like."

Thoughts/Quotes:
- Told Justin that re-tooling his forehand was like riding a bike (once picked it up, would do with ease).....his response, "It sure is taking a long time to learn how to ride this bike."
- Jordan:  "We need t-shirts that say Net Ninjas on the front; and Drift, Pinch, Poach on the back."
- While in MN last weekend:
        Amy:  "We're almost to Canada.  This is as close as I'll get to studying abroad."
        Hoff:  "You'd actually have to study here for that to be the case."
* Amy completed her studies/homework before departing to ensure that she had time to count each of the 10,000 lakes in MN (actual # is 11,842 for those wondering).  Amy also snapped a picture of the Welcome to Minnesota sign while informing us that it was only the 6th State she'd been to.  Little did she know, we were 6 hours from Canada and the last 6 hour trip she took (from IL to OH) took her 2 days.
-  Informed Brad that the library was cheaper.  Although, that wouldn't allow him to one day "display" his knowledge.
-  Also while in MN:
       Kris:  "Tamara, bet you've never been stuck behind farm equipment before."
       Tamara:  "No, can't say that I have."
- In speaking of the weather and given matches:
        Jordan:  "It always seem to rain for the Coe / (fill in the blank) match."
        Hoff:  "That is because (a higher power) cries when the (fill in the blank) come to town."

Ran a Mixed Doubles Tiebreaker Tournament for those at practice yesterday.  Mark & Diannah took 1st place, Laura & Amy (we were short on men) 2nd place and Jordan & Justin 3rd.  The highlight was Mark imitating Amy running from the net as Justin volleyed (which ended up bouncing 3 times before it would have gotten to her).  A close second was Jordan's mid-point surprise / jaw drop when Amy (randomly and by choice) served and volleyed.  Will say that she hit 3 quality volleys when did so......before again, taking retreat, and losing the point.

The men take their turn in St Peter today.  Tournament Website.

The women wrap up Conference play tomorrow at Clark Racquet Center.  Dubuque at 10 AM; Loras at 1 PM.
