What the Fall Semester is Over?

Wow...where did time go? It is so hard for me to believe that this fall semester of 2007-08 is already here! A lot has happened in this past semester! Obviously, we didn't do as well on the season as we had hoped...but, that is going to occasionally happen. But, as I look back on what we have experienced...I see more positive than negative. Sure, our wins and losses were not what we prepared for...but, I was truly amazed and impressed seeing how the DWU players stayed positive and never gave up on each other. For the most part, that has helped them in the classroom as well.

Off the field...the guys are incredible. In our "One Goal...Making a Difference!" Campaign with the American Cancer Society and the March of Dimes...it looks like we are going to raise over $8,000 to give to these organizations and save lives! That is an incredible testament to what the student - athletes of the DWU Soccer Family. I am so proud of what they are accomplishing. Many of the soccer players also volunteered their time as "Baggers for Cancer" recently where they spent time bagging groceries at the County Fair Grocery Store here in Mitchell, SD. The folks who got us involvd have been very complimentary of those young men.

I am very proud of the guys that we have here at DWU and they are doing a fantastic job in all aspects of their lives this year. They're friends and families can be very proud of them as we give thanks this holiday season.

By the way...my New's Year's resolution will be to update this blog much more often than I have this semester ;-) Talk to you next year! I KNOW that 2008 will be a GREAT year!
