June 8th Update (Summer Wk 2)
Happy Monday!
Last week we made our way to the ball park to watch the Range Riders wrap up nine innings tied 10-10 with the Oakland Ballers. To the surprise of many of us there, how they break a tie is a home run derby! We got to watch one batter from each team step up and swing for the fences to decide the winner. After the Oakland batter finished his 2 minute at-bat with 3 home runs, the Range Rider hitter, with about :20 seconds to spare, hit his 4th homer to win the night!
Later in the week, the Gold and Senior swimmers organized a bike ride up Going-to-the-Sun Road on Saturday morning. Although cooler temps and cloudy weather were looming, a great group ride was had!
Keep an eye out for more team activities away from the pool this summer!
This Week and Next:
This week we continue building back our technique and focus again on our legs. We have our 3rd overall round of our Kick Test Set this week.
