While traveling throughout Europe with the USA/BIP Development Team, Lady Vol volleyball players Mindy Flynn and Leah Hinkey are providing fans of the Orange and White with periodic updates through journal entries on www.utladyvols.com. They arrived in Pula, Croatia, yesterday after training with UT head coach Rob Patrick and alongside the USA Junior A2 Team for four days in Pordenone, Italy, outside of Venice. They will compete in the European Global Challenge, July 22-26, before returning home to Knoxville for the start of the 2007 campaign. Fans who wish to follow the team???s progress at the event may do so at www.bringitusa.com/gc2007. Mindy Flynn???s second journal entry is below.
We're heading to Croatia today. Yesterday we had practice in the morning and a scrimmage in the afternoon. The scrimmage was very helpful for our team to start getting used to each other because we're playing with girls we've never palyed with before. The last two nights we went to Venice, once with the team and once with our families. The city is so much different than where we are staying. It's amazing how they built it and that it is still there. The food is amazing, like an Olive Garden times a million!!! Now that we are in Croatia we start playing the tournament and will get to hang out on the beach. we can't wait!!
Ciao!
Mindy
