"Right now, my plan is to be a nurse, but if sometime in the future I want to go further than that, it would be awesome to be a doctor."

"I love the com- petitiveness of softball. I just love the game. I love being able to compete with my teammates, I love being on the mound or in the circle with all the pressure. I don't know how to describe it." Gaa said that once she's done playing in college, she's sure she'll continue playing softball in adult leagues.

"A fishbowl is an event where athletes show up and put their names in a fishbowl or any other container." Teams are chosen randomly and • then assigned to ~ coach. "Irony of the day, I was assigned to the white team, wearing Shelton jerseys and the Kitsap coach was assigned the blue Yelm jerseys," Nesmith said. "It was funny be- cause I only had two athletes who actually play for Shelton, Houston Dean and John Kaiser, go with me while the rest all played for the blue team." Nesmith said fishbowl tourna- ments are fun because they allow teams to really see the different fo- becomes.., mess about bludgeoning another person." cuses of other programs. "Kitsap has a deeper emphasis on teaching point of contact, from making the tackle to setting the rucks," he said. '~relm spends a lot of time teaching set pieces. In Shel- ton, our claim to fame in Washing- ton state is our pace of game. We play at a much faster rate than most programs making decisions faster and acting faster." He said that in a tournament like this, the first half of the game is always a bit of a mess. "Players are busy showing off their skills but rarely utilizing the skills different programs bring to the table," Nesmith said.
