Ready to Ruck

Well, the brand-spankin' new Saratoga Stampede will have its first live-action scrimmage tomorrow, Saturday, April 1 (no foolin'), at the East Side Rec Field in Ballston Spa. Kick-off will be at 1 p.m. This will be in preparation for our first opposed match, which will be next Saturday in Rutland, Vt.

Here's a photo of me tearin' it up at practice yesterday. (Credit: Chis Tomchik) Notice there are no other players near me. That's not because I'm "ahead of the pack," but well behind it. A few more weeks of this, and I'll either be in shape or in intensive care. Cross your fingers.
