Teams train, bond on spring break trip
April 19, 2018
Players on the girls soccer, baseball and track and field teams — 42 athletes in all — traveled to Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando over spring break, from March 14 to March 20. They trained and competed in or near the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex.
“There’s huge value for all the teams for training, and weather conditions are really, really nice, obviously, so they’re able to get a week’s worth of training in,” Athletic Director David Ribbens said.
Greta List, a freshman on the girls soccer team, went on the trip to form new relationships with the upperclassmen on the team.
“There were only 11 of us who went, but I think we got pretty close,” Greta said.
John McKee, a senior baseball player, said the trip helped his team build chemistry.
“My favorite moment of the trip is the last game where we got a win against a really good team,” John said. “I think it showed that we made a lot of progress over the course of the trip.”
