Megan Bunch's Women's Basketball Student-Athlete Blog #1

I can’t believe that this is my last year...it's crazy! I’ve been playing since I was five and to get an opportunity to play in college has been awesome.

We just started practice, and the first couple weeks of practice are never fun. With our team, we only have five returners from last year, so basically the coaches have to re-teach everything. That doesn’t just mean offenses, but defenses, rebounding, everything. All of this has to be done in a matter of three weeks, so it definitely takes a lot of focus from the new people and a lot of patience from everybody else.

Being a senior, I feel like I have to help in any way that I can, because I’ve been through all of this a couple times. Not only is there a lot to learn that has to do with basketball, but there’s also school that athletes have to focus on. I’ve always felt like school work should be done before practice, because after practice is done, you’re usually tired, and just want to relax. Well, that’s all for now, time to go to practice!
