"* the team is definitely excited, but i would say they're also a little nervous.

Spring sports teams in minnesota didn't have a season last year which makes this first week of practice all the more exciting.xxx we're just jacked up and ready to rock and roll.

It's nice.

Finally, spring athletes like megan ihrke are back to enjoying the sports they love.

I'm super excited after missing our entire season last year it's just good to be out here.

John marshall head coach ?

"* thang nguyen ?

"* says aft being away from the sport for so long ?

"* it poses a unique set of challenges for teams as they get back in the swing of things.

It will be hard, it will be hard.

Now for the fact that some of these girls we have half the kids that will play summer ball and into fall ball and what not to keep their skillset up, but then we have the other half that can't play summer ball and can't play offseason stuff because of other commitments and what not.

Despite any roadblocks... things seem to be going well during this first week of practice.

This is day three for us so it's been going really really well.

You know the girls are working hard, again, , they're jacked up, they're excited and want to play.

They just want to do what they need to do to get our practices in and get our games going and get the season going.

The rockets hope to build off their success in 2019... but along with that comes playing it safe when it comes to covid?

"*19 precaution.

Abby miles says anyone that played during the offseason is used to the protocols.

It's been helpful playing domeball.

We had to wear them all through domeball and now with practices and i think we've gotten pretty used to it and we just want to play so we'll do whatever it takes.

Still ?
