Women's Team Rankings

The plan was to post this on Wednesday for Women's Team Wednesday but the information hadn't been officially posted yet so here it is on a Thursday. 

"The main thing is to keep the main thing the main thing" -Adrian Spracklen
This quote has been the goal of the season since winter training, and even once I understood what it meant, it wasn't until this week that I was able to grasp why we were repeated told this. It was because having the focus and dedication that we've been able to have all season and the repeated hard work and sacrifice truly does have a pay off in the end. 

9:05 PM on a this Tuesday night, the women's team received a text message from Coach Adrian Spracklen....

Hearing the news that Mercyhurst had moved up to third was one of the highlights of the season so far, not just for myself but for the entire team. We kept telling each other that the current D2 standings weren't accurate in regards to us being fourth and that we were ready to put the work in and prove everyone wrong. "This is going to be our year" has been another phrase said around practice this season and moving up from our #4 spot proves that this team is ready to do what it takes to win it all. 

Third is an amazing accomplishment, but it still isn't were we want to be for this season. While the goal is to make it onto the podium at NCAA Championships in Sacramento this year, it's a gold medal that is really pushing all of us. As a team, the goal is to continue to work hard and continue keeping the main thing our main thing and get ready to battle it out in California.
