A Bit of Culture for the Coaches

This last week of spring term has seen the coaching staff getting “cultured.”

Yes, we ventured out the gym and trekked all the way to the Hopkins Center! And we went to more than one venue — that could qualify us as groupies.

First, it was to the Bentley Theater to see Betsy William’10 in a supporting role in "The Marriage of Bette and Boo." It was a clever, bittersweet play that was well performed by all involved. Our girl Betsy was excellent as the obnoxious and less than kind sister of Bette. She was actually so effective in her role, she scared me!! I didn’t know she had it in her.

Then it was onto the Moore Theater to watch Jalea Moses ’12 impersonate Michael Jackson. She was unbelievably good. I was impressed when I saw Michael dance ... but to see Jalea do the exact same dance blew my mind! Her dance was the last performance of the night and she brought down the house.

Finally, Sasha Dosenko ’12 wrote about her adventure in France where she has been studying for a term. She arrives back in the States shortly and I can’t wait to hear more about her trip.

I am so proud of our players and the rich life they are able to create for themselves. How lucky am I that they bring me along for the ride.

Until next time,
Coach Wielgus
