Practice has started

Basketball practices have begun and we are off to a great start! We kicked off our official pre-season practices with Midnight Madness this past wednesday. I was absolutely shocked to see the Junell Center full of so many people on midnight in the middle of the week. It was great to see so many people support the men and women's basketball programs, but at the same time it made the whole ordeal a lot more nerve-wracking for myself.

It was my first time to ever play a basketball game (even though it was only five minutes) in what will be my new home for the next four years. Since Midnight Madness we have had practice every day since (including weekends) and I think we have been doing a great job. I'm finally catching on to all of the plays and everyone is starting to gel. I'm especially looking forward to our first scrimmage next Thursday where we will finally get to scrimmage against someone that is not wearing an ASU practice jersey.

With all our hard work and preparation, as well as a new mind-set, we all truly believe that this is going to be a great season for the 'Belles. I hope everyone has a great week, and congrats to the ASU football team! Go Rams!
