Good to see somebody(ies) reporting; check out U Catch for your elite trends and reports. I’m interested to see what other content they churn out, especially now as the big tourneys wrap up and we move into a month of relatively quiet sectionals matchups.

Speaking of sectionals, I’m off to Lancaster this weekend. No real preview necessary; the easy goal is to make regionals. Slightly harder, but very doable, is doing so with the 2nd-place bid. Process goals include continuing to get in flow/on the same page on offense (myself and as a team); continuing to refine decision-making with the disc and execution when I do throw; and dominating on defense, both when guarding players and once we get the turn.

Been feeling great lately (minor bout of shin splints at week’s start notwithstanding). First track workout (why so late?) last week, been focusing on core strength a lot so I can keep my power stable and directed. We’ll see if the fifth gear is fully back this weekend, and keep working to get that sixth one too…

    you should do a post talking about shin splints, if you haven't already. they are a problem for a huge number of ultimate players, and nobody seems to have the right idea of how to get over them effectively. just a suggestion.

    good luck at sectionals!

    I'm no expert on shin splints by any means; I very rarely have to deal with them (this was the first time since high school).

    For me, shin splints like any injury of overuse like that stems from 1) overuse and 2) my body being out of alignment…at this point I know my body well enough to debug it when I'm out of alignment. If I ever feel comfortable/competent enough to post on it, I will.
