Almost Over--Ready for a New Start

It's that time of the summer where everything is bustling around campus as we finish up with construction projects, renovation projects and just getting ready for the new school year.  The Fall athletes have all returned and are about to open their seasons.  Everyone is excited and refreshed (I think) to begin  the 2012-13 school year.  I am for sure.  There will be changes, fortunately or unfortunately, for some of us.  I only say that because change is never easy, so it can be unfortunate for those who don't embrace it and for those who do, then the change can be fortunate.  I am pumped for the 2012-13 season as 6-new players will join us.  That is more than a team you put on the floor.  The last time we had more than a team to add to our roster was back in 1992-93 when we brought in 7-new players.  Through all those years since then, we have had to bring in only a couple of players to compliment the existing roster.  Basically it is the same thing, as this past May we graduated 4-significant contributors to our program over the last few years.  Not only did bodies need to be replaced, but some statistics will have to be as well.  Talk about change.  That is why I think it is fortunate.  Opportunities abound everywhere and I trust they will be grasped and taken advantage of by each of our players.  Can't wait!
