Re: Well-Deserved Recognition of Team 25
During a time of travels, I traveled to New Jersey to check out their off season, Brunswick Eruption. Watching teams run an off season is a very telling experience and I was very impressed with the event and the way it was run. I met many people, fell in love with New Jersey, and was inspired to learn more, do more, and be more. 25 has that effect on people.
I think part of that is because they are so human and yet, so focused on excellence. The human parts always seem to center around things like having batteries fall out on the road, running out of gas, and eating at really great and fun restaurants. The excellence is not just in performance, it is in the level of discussions that they willingly have with guests from out-of-town who want to learn about team structure, off season events, being human, and catching the excellence fever. I'm very grateful for such powerful alumni such as Kristian, Morgan, and Alexa. They continue to support their team in the best ways that they can and to make an impact on people like me. It's pretty special.
