Playoff Tension

With the Oilers out of it this year there's not much of a reason to follow hockey anymore (there's a slight chance I'm the only one with this opinion)... so our attention was turned to the Intramural Volleyball Playoffs on Thursday. After a great start in the first set we battled through another two but weren't able to pull out the win. On the upside, if there was an award for the tallest and shortest player on a team we'd easily win both!

We've finally made it to the end of the year and seem to have gotten through the last of the big assignments, but there's still a few grueling days of "P&O Playoffs" to get through with 7 exams in 4 days....the playoff beards are already making an appearance! The final few days of class will be spent on the last of the patient castings and fittings for foot orthoses, and a whole lot of studying. So far the foot orthoses fittings have been going great and we've been tying in lots of new knowledge about the foot with our regional anatomy course. Next week should be interesting with our first fitting of a UCBL foot orthosis and a few other unique designs.

There may not be a good team to cheer for in the hockey playoffs this year, but there's still some bragging rights up for grabs as we head off to our placements and the start of summer. Two games into the P&O sportsnet hockey pool and there's already a 13pt gap between first and last (this is where you end up when you pick Flames players). Well, time to get back to the books. Keep an eye out for the 2007/2008 P&O Volleyball team, we're making a big comeback....Petra has promised a 4ft vertical by September!
