by Allison October 3, 2012

Before I start my studies, I make a list of everything that I need to do for the next three days of school work. Doing this makes sure that I don’t miss anything. It is also a nice feeling to see what I have accomplished. I normally do this on a Monday and I try [...]

They importance of team bonding: FBU style The minute all of us basketball girls were fully introduced, there was an instant sister bond.

Do or Die!

by Marielle April 3, 2012

One thing I would like to do during my time at Fontbonne is to attend an athletic event for every sport. If you look at the Fontbonne athletics page (which is http://www.griffinpride.com/athletics/ by the way) you’ll see that Fontbonne has baseball, basketball, cross country, golf, lacrosse, soccer, tennis, track, volleyball, bowling, softball, and dance.

You Heard of the Dream Team?

by Marielle March 28, 2012

“C’mon, Michael, it’s game time. Slip on your Hanes, lace up your Nikes, take your Wheaties and your Gatorade, and we’ll grab a Big Mac on the way to the ballpark!” Even though the above quote has absolutely nothing to do with cross country or track, it still finds its way into my head at [...]
