Pass Workouts

I just received word from our Athletic Director that we are now able to start P.A.S.S. Mr. Riddick made an arrangement with Jaime to have Heritage athletes come to her facility for training two times a week. The times are Tuesdays at 7:30pm and Fridays at 3:30pm. Each session should last one hour. Please keep in mind that these sessions are optional. The Athletic Department covers the cost of two training sessions per week. This is a nice opportunity for players wanting some additional work outs.

Parents not familar with P.A.S.S. are welcome to contact Jaime or Coach Nelson to find out about the program. Heritage is fortunate to have P.A.S.S. and the program helps our athletes gain an advantage in speed and quickness.

Lifting Update

I am pleased with the turn out. We are averaging fifteen players at each session. The boys are working hard and do a very nice job of encouraging each other. Captains Graham Gardner and Nick Sato are setting a great example for the younger guys to follow.

Cosmic Bowling Outing

We had a great turnout for cosmic bowling this past Saturday night. Sixteen players, two coaches, and a wife turned out to bowl. Some highlights of the night were:

1. Watching the guys try to see how many times the ball could hit the bumpers before hitting the pins.

2. Watching bowling balls go through legs, behind backs, over heads, and being kicked down the lanes.

3. Everyone on Coach Nelson's lane having too much fun to realize that they got beat by Coach Nelson's wife. (She was a ringer!! Sarah has her own ball and shoes)

4. Listening to the guys cheer for Sarah to bowl gutters and to miss pins so that she wouldn't beat them again.

5. Watching the interaction between the guys as they had good clean fun.

This was a great start to our outings and the coaching staff hopes to see this trend continue.
