Our 2016-17 season is underway!  I'm still catching up after a busy first few days that included tryouts, Phil Soule Phlail, and Fall Camp.  For starters, here's a recap of our fitness testing results from tryouts:

Overall, I feel really good about this group - very fit, very motivated, and positive team energy so far.  There's lots of work to do before we're ready to compete with the best in our league, but I really think this team has the potential to take Bowdoin Nordic to another level.  Can't wait!
