Cabin Fever Hits the Utes


After 3 days of hard training and competition, the Utes headed out to Oakley, Utah (about 45 minutes away) and the cabin of Ute goal keeper Amy Edman for an overnight team trip...
25 players
4 coaches
1 trainer...Morgan Collins our new athletic trainer for the year.

Just enough folks for some good "Rock Band", Foosball, Volleyball, Hula hoops, ATV riding...and, oh yeah...maybe some team conversations about the season...overall it was a much needed breather and a great time....Friday night was spent at the cabin and Saturday at beautiful Smith and Morehouse Lake down the road.

Much thanks to assistant coach, Leslie Keener, for setting it up and to Boyd Edman, Amy's father, for coming out to help us at the cabin and the lake. Okay...let's get to some photos and video...






Assistant coach Laurel Roderick shows some great balance and agility in the morning volley ball match. Roxy Tebbs and Jen Christoffers can only watch the magical shot fall in for a point.









ATV action...Chelsea Forbes, Lauren Dudley and a mystery player sandwiched in between the two enjoy a morning ride along the road...all other vehicles watch out!













Trainer Morgan Collins plays guitar as Erin Dalley drums away and Morgan Skeen belts out the notes in this rock band dream team. Freshman Lauren Porter can only watch in amazement!














Saturday was spent at Smith and Morehouse Lake. Here Mr. Edman gets the kayaks, rafts and even a wind sail ready for action!












Let's compare the technique! Freshmen Anne Shallenberger and Kellie Woodfield try the alternating-side stroke while sophomores Erin Dalley and Alyssa Toomey go for the same-side paddling...we need to set up a race!
