This was a great practice right off the bat. Before we had even left DeSmet, Matt locked his keys in the trunk of his car. So he joined everyone not called Padre in the Pondering Man Van to carpool to CC Lake. We started off going left from the café. We meet up with Seiler who was getting a teeth check up at the soccer fields.
There was no one on the Ruggerfest fields so we decided to run right through the middle of them chasing all the birds that were just hanging out. It was pretty sweet. As we got out to the lake side, Matt and Kevin had a little routine they for every time we passed a girl. It involved talking loudly about Kevin’s lack of a prom date and wishing there was someone nearby that could be asked. We tried our best, but it didn’t work out.
For a good majority of the run, we just said MCC stereotypes. “I am [CBC, Vianney, Chaminade, SLUH, or DeSmet] and I [insert funny generalization typically related to running].” It was hilarious! We came up with some really good one for every school. The best one was from Martini and it made Joke of the Day.
When the 70 minute run finally came to an end, it was time for core. Jacob then found an orange in the field that became Coach. Whoever was holding Coach got to talk for coach. He encouraged us throughout core. We really like Orange Coach. We had a blast with him. Nick had a great line after Waller said something about how he couldn’t do anything. “Coach isn’t a vegetable; he’s a fruit!”
Because our run stopped at Jacob’s car at the soccer field, we loaded up and drove back to the café to get the milk and the Van. It was rave. Coach was hanging out the window. After drinking our delicious chocolate milk, we played the first ever milk cartoon bball national championship. Team Kabes- Lil OC got out to an early 2 point lead over Scherp-Wall who battled back to even the game at 2. Defense tightened up and it took several positions before O’Connor hit a hook shoot win the game. In celebration of the National Championship Abernathy got an ice dump from Martini.
The epic practice which Jacob called the “best of the season” ended with a sweet picture to commemorate the awesome day. Lucky a friend of Jacob had showed up to take it.

Best Dressed: Scherping. All of us ran with our shirts tucked in to show off the classic flags shorts. Brian took the victory because of his now trademark bandana matched the Canadian Maple Leaf.
What. A. Day.
