Re: Teams losing lots of seniors
We lost half of our team to graduating seniors at the end of last season. Only 4 of us went to college close enough to be able to mentor the team on a regular basis. We thought that we had a lot more new members to replace the old ones, but as it turned out, when build season rolled around, most of them stopped coming because of the time commitment. But the ones who did stay, are learning very quickly. Some of them have already started to take on the leadership roles left by the graduating seniors. If I sounded overly worried at the end of last season, I'm not any more. This team is still in good hands no matter how many seniors the team loses each year.
