Finally writing again...

It has been awhile since I lasted posted some news. No excuses except the start of the season, a quick flight to Maine for my induction in to the Midcoast Sports Hall of Fame, and then Homecoming. We are off to a good start for the 2010-11 season. The players are working very hard and the team is coming together. Our new players are learning quickly the difference between high school and college ball. We will have our first scrimmage on the 31st. Homecoming was this past weekend and it was fabulous to see former players back for their 5th, 10th, 15th, and 25th reunions. Seeing other teams' former athletes back to celebrate the day was just as special. As a matter of fact a former players' dad told me I needed to keep this spot up to date so I promise I will do better. What lovely weather we had to stand around and reminisce about various times through out the different seasons. I thoroughly enjoyed chatting with some of my players about their experiences and listening to the older (before 1981) players share their moments. All in all just a super day.

Another Great RMC Open







Our annual Golf Open was a huge success this past Saturday. We had the best event we have had to date. We had more golfers, more sponsors, more friends who joined us for lunch, and more good weather. Our day started with lunch, a silent auction, give-aways, and an introduction of our 2010-11 team as well as comments from me. Katie Williams also spoke on behalf of the team and talked a little about the team's pre-season activities. Then it was tee-off at 1:00. Congrats to Carson and his teammates from UVA for shooting 12 under. They brought some livelihood to the course. Our RMC Open has become as special as our Back to the Hive. We hope you will plan on joining us next season.
