Spring Break - Player's Blog

Get the inside story from softball player Payton Hintz.

Day 1

It was a very eventful day for the Blue Angels. We started the day in cold, snowy Wisconsin. It was 7 degrees when we left for the airport. A few short hours later, we landed in the Sunshine State. We could not have asked for better weather. It was clear skies with a light breeze and 80 degrees.

After getting settled, we headed to the sports complex. This was our first time on a field this season; and it sure felt good. We have been stuck in a gym for far too long. However, our time in the gym has been very successful. We have a strong line up going into our first game of the season.

The team chemistry this season is phenomenal. From the shiest player, to the most outgoing, we are truly a family. We have our fair share of quirks. A few of us are quite tone deaf, but this does not mean we do not sing together. The car rides to and from the sports complex were filled with missed lyrics and noises that more so resemble animal sounds. This is just one piece of our…interesting family. Every quirky piece brings us closer. I am excited to see what the rest of this trip has in store for us.
