Yoga

When it comes to Yoga, not too many students know much about it. They either think it does nothing for you, or they think it would be embarrassing to do it. I was always one of those people who thought it would be a waste of time to do it. But after recently participating in several classes, i feel it was one of the best things i did during my off season for baseball. Yoga does not only work balance, strength, relax you, but it also helps you mentally. Being mentally prepared is a way to gain an advantage on any competition in any job, sport, or activity. So next time you have the opportunity to try it, GIVE IT A SHOT!

Basketball Makes Playoffs!

For the first time in 10 years the Slippery Rock University Basketball ball team has made the Psac playoffs. Leb by a strong senior class the team has rallied to win their last 6 conference games. This is including an 82-72 win against the #5 team in the nation, Gannon. The team is going to have to keep strong coming to the end of their regular season if they want a chance at the national tournament. People say it takes strong senior leadership for teams to be great and that is something we definitely have. So there good be even better things to come.

Baseball Season Is kicking off this weekend!!!!

This weekend will be opening day for the Slippery Rock baseball team. The baseball team will be traveling to Chillicothe, Ohio to play 5 games. They will be playing Tiffin University, Oakland, University, and Bluefield State. The outcomes of the games will hopefully be in favor of Slippery Rock, but they will not only be competing against the other team but also the rigid weather. The high for the weekend is supposed to be 34 degrees. But although the weather is going to be brutal, there is a good feeling knowing baseball season has started.
