Wake Forest - Day One

An amazing load of the bus for the first time out, ably led by Brennan Morris. Wheels-up at 1300HRS. Everyone had all thier stuff and to the bus on time. Following a wholesome sack lunch, provided by our Dining Hall, the students all (and I mean all) took a nice 90 minute nap before we stopped for gas in Blacksburg.
Had a gloriously cheap steak buffet in North Carolina. The fried chicken was just amazing. Have checked into traditional Holiday Inn Express and the students are busily working on cases and speeches. I am hearing John, even now, working through his oratory with our assistant coach, as I post this blog from my BlackJack.
We will Lights Out at 2230 for an 0700 wake up, breakfast, and practice sessions before heading off for rounds at Wake.
I am VERY happy with this team for their maturity and focus. Also very happy with our new Assistant Coach, Lauren Burt, for her experience and enthusiasm.
It is foggy and misty tonight in Winston-Salem with scattered thunderstorms scheduled for tomorrow. Luckily the students have all brought their umbrellas.
