Back to School!

Classes have officially started!! The girls got their books bright and early this morning and have successfully completed the first day of classes. The Bears will jump right into preseason next week with strength and conditioning testing and also get their first individual workouts under their belts. Should be some extremely busy, yet exciting upcoming weeks!!

Shout-Out from Courtney Stoermer:

"Hey Bear fans! I hope your summer has been going as fast as mine! This summer I started my first semester as a nursing student. Talk about stressful! On my first day I had never been so overwhelmed and stressed, but now I only have three weeks left of my first semester. I learned the basics of nursing, and more importantly, the skills to nursing. I have done a full assessment, which for example is when you are new at a hospital and the nurse collects all your medical history and runs tests on you. I have also learned wound care, how to insert a foley catheter, how to start an IV, administer medicines ordered by the physician, and to provide sterile fields of care. The program is very intense but I have gotten to know my classmates very well; they are like my second team since we are together every day for about 8 hours. I started my clinicals in a real medical setting which is intimidating but will hopefully go well. My summer has been going so fast with all my school work, by the time I get my work-outs in and do home work my day is over! Talk about a good summer?! It only makes me look forward to the upcoming school year and season that much more!"
