Regionals was earlier this month. Finished 8th. Had some good moments, had some bad. 4 years of ultimate.. came to an end. Some expectations were met, some weren't. But all in all, I'm done with college ultimate. Team voted on new captains, and I think they'll be awesome as they are already taking over most of the responsibility. But I ran into a rookie at the library last night, and we give them a hard time saying that they're not a crustie (a Pleiade vet) yet, and won't be until fall. Anyways, I ran into a rookie, and she asked, "Why weren't you at pick-up, captain?" and I smugly replied, "I'm not captain anymore." And she goes, "Hey! If I'm still a rookie, then you're still captain!" LOL. She got me.
So now that I'm done with college ultimate, what's next? Honestly, I don't know. Club's on my mind, but I have to make sure my body can take it. And then.. women's or coed? At this point of my "career," after 4 years, and 3 years of rebuilding, I feel like I need something to show off for the past years--some sort of accomplishment. And though placing/making it far (aka nationals) isn't all that matter, but it has always been a goal of mine. But ultimately, I want to join a team that I can actively learn from and that benefit from me. I know I have a lot to learn, 4 years in college means nothing in club, and I've never actually played club. And if club doesn't work out this year.. then that's okay too. I've had a good 4 years, and maybe it's time to take a break. :)
