Two and a half days into pre-season and things are going pretty well. We've had two fitness tests so far with good results including an IPFW best score in the second test. While the results of the first test on Thursday were a little disappointing, today's test yielded much better results with nearly everyone passing. One more test to go on Monday morning, the dreaded beep test! Some players will go into with a relaxed attitude as they have already met our program's standard for passing two of the three fitness tests.
We've been doing more than just fitness, though. In a little over an hour we head out for our sixth session in three days before a well deserved day off tomorrow. We've focused a lot on individual and small group defending so far while our goalkeepers have been focusing primarily on their fitness and mobility in goal. Overall the intensity of the session has been very good and the freshmen have been integrated very well into the team. With a week left to go before our first pre-season game there is still a lot to do to prepare but the feeling around the team is incredibly positive.
Look for a post from a player or two in the next few days to get their perspective on how things have gone so far! GO DONS!
