Spring Season Starts Early
The Westmont Men's Soccer Team is on track to start training a little earlier this year than in years past. Starting Thursday January 21, the team will start training at P3 in preparation for the coming season. P3 (or Peak Performance Project) is a company owned by new Westmont Athletic Director Dave Odell and specializes in helping athletes to become quicker, stronger and faster. Many of the other athletic teams at Westmont have been participating in this program, and large improvement has been seen as a result. Daniel Guzman (Soph.) is very excited about this new program: "I think it is great to see our team taking a step in the right direction in the area of fitness. Our team can really benefit from this and I can't wait to see the improvement each player makes as a result." The Men's team will be training in this new program for about 3 weeks and will start training on the field on February 8th.
On another note, the new stadium field is near completion and everyone is very anxious to get on it, and as you all can imagine, Wolfy is the most excited. Zach George (Soph.) says, "It's great we finally have our own field, and it isn't made of a bunch of different types of grass which is nice. I just know that if anyone touches that field before its ready, Wolfy is going to kill them." The word is definitely out that it is going to be a great facility. Denmark and Mexico will playing a friendly in Santa Barbara in the coming weeks and asked if they could use our new field. Unfortunately, the field will not be ready in time for the game, but it is exciting that two such high profile teams would like to use our facility. It will certainly provide a great venue for home games next season and the team plans on making it a winning start to a new pitch. More to come soon.....
