On Wednesday, the BC field hockey team took the term, “use the stars as your guide” to a whole different level. That’s because we began practicing at 6 AM that morning…in the complete dark. As we warmed up we went back to second grade science class and looked for the big and little dipper, and we even created some new constellations. Once we started playing in the dark, we struggled with depth perception and also seeing the ball in general, which gave everyone plenty of laughs. We were all a little mad that we had to go to our first day of MWF classes right after practice all sweaty and gross looking, but at least our teachers believed us when we told them we might miss a class or two because we were members of the Bridgewater field hockey team!
Yesterday we played our first game of the season at Hood College in Maryland and we came back to Bridgewater with a win! We did a great job of accomplishing a few team goals during that game. We have our first home game of the season this Sunday at noon, so come out and support us!
