Shuffling off to Buffalo

Long bus ride - three movies as promised...selection OK, poor, and great.
Started with the Italian Job, then much to this coach's dismay Captain Weaver thought SpaceBalls would be a good choice...maybe for a 12 year old, but then again look what I'm dealing with! We finished up with Casino Royale, an awesome Bond remake in my opinion.
Went straight to the pool to shake off the bus ride and had the squad do our regular team warm up. As usual some of them felt great, some ok, and some horrible...but the meet doesn't start until tomorrow.
Events tomorrow evening are the 200 Medley Relay which will be Max Butler or Andrew Willbrant leading off, Pat Kuehne probably in the breast leg, Nate Bromage doing fly, and our Puerto Rican Rocket Juan Moliere anchoring. After that relay the men's 1 Meter Diving will take place...hopefully with some great representation from our 5 divers performances in the afternoon trials. The evening will finish with our 800 Free Relay team of AJ Vozella, Max Butler, Drew Talarick, and Derek Castellana. I'm hoping to see them make a run at the school record.
GO UMASS!

The adrenaline is pumping as the meet draws closer. Can't wait to see how the rollercoaster ride progresses the next couple of days. As in the past it should end with Russ getting a nice swim w/ the team on Saturday! Go UMass!!!
