๐Ÿ‘ข finally, the weather person blew it

 ๐Ÿ‘ขyou got it. This is a ' shovel ' again from emoticon

but in our favour. The 3 inches became about 1 inch. AND fluffy - easy to shovel at that.  Yeah !!!!!

Cold ish and bright. 

THUS, the day finds us watching " Tis the Holidays - the Holidays on Screen " which was taped [ guessing pre - Christmas ]. Here it is - March. And we are enjoying the special.

CRAP. Spring is when ........ ????????

I suppose that we all have heroes or those figures that achieve. I'm following a distance runner. She is Katelyn Tuohy, a soph running at North Carolina St. She is well on her way to becoming a Collegian legend. She holds records for NCAA events. 
This year, at the current NCAA indoors, she has won the 5000 m and is scheduled to run the 3000 today. Thereby, doubling in the championships. Has this been done before. Yes. BUT rarely, do athletes choose to run 8000 m to achieve this

Go ! Katelyn

The boys of Spring, Lax, esp. JHU BlueJays are playing today against Syracuse U. Well, hows the seaon going ? Up and down
Losses to Loyola. MD, North Carolina and Virgina. Wins vs. Jacksonville, Georgetown, St Josephs and Utah.

However. This season has maybe taught me to shut up [ or that I was right all along ]. Hopkins finally, started playing a balanced schedule of powerful and not so powerful teams. Rather than getting beat up every weekend.

To be fair. Their pre - season prospects looked terrible. The teams that they were to play had win records [ or predicted strengths ] well in excess of normal oppositions.

OK. Smarty pants. What does all this mean. Dunno. In such an up and down season, it is hard to figure a pattern.
But Hop, is not the only team, going up and down. If you threw the teams in a mix master and turned it on - yea, thats this season.

Over the past, five or so years, undefeated teams at # 1 were the expected. Already, # 1 , 2 , 3 have lost.

Victory. Syracuse 9 - JHU 11

Katelin Tuohy doubled at NCAA meet
