Hello everyone!

This Thursday evening, all of our SWGgles will be back on campus! It might seem a bit late for the preseason, but we're not wasting any time getting started. On Friday morning we'll take care of NCAA paperwork, get our physicals out of the way, and then we're going right to the gym to blow our fitness test out of the water! It will be nice to have that out of the way as we leave for our team retreat in Lake Tahoe on Saturday morning.

This summer has flown by for most of us (I guess it seemed to go a bit slower for our excited froshies!), and we've had a blast keeping in touch with each other through our Xanga board. It sounds like everyone has had some great experiences over the last couple of months. Upper classmen had jobs and internships, learning about what work in the real world is like, and a few other girls took summer school to get some more classes out of the way. Other girls took some vacation time, and just enjoyed their summers with their families and friends from home who will be going to other colleges around the country. One thing is for sure though: We all trained hard over the summer. We've done conditioning lists, and circuits, and cardio, and PT and rehab, and we've worked on new choreography, and new skills-and with three awesome additions to our historic team from last year, we're pumped up and ready to go! STANFORD is more than a force to be reckoned with on the NCAA Gymnastics scene this year!!!

We hope that all of you are getting as excited we are for the upcoming year. Stay tuned in to our preseason as we keep you updated with more Inside the Locker Room articles, and take care for now!

SWG Love,

Liz =)
