| --Senior softball player Selena Collins will share her thoughts on the season, and other things, with us each week in AggieAthletics.com's player diary segment. January 22, 2003 Well, we have exactly 13 days until our first game. After practicing for so many weeks we are getting antsy to play our first game. Our team is looking so good. The level of commitment our team shows is one that is not displayed by teams other than ones that are trying to make it to that next level, and our team is truly showing that that is where we want to be. We have people out there working so hard to earn their position, as well as others working so hard to learn more about the position they will eventually have the opportunity to play. Unfortunately we had a key player suffer a knee injury, and although an obstacle like this one is one that is not easily taken in stride, it is one that Jill is handling very well. Not every athlete can make it through humbling obstacles like this but it is those that don't let something like this bring them down who are the true athletes, and use it to get better mentally and physically. We know as a team that Jill is a true athlete. So to Jill...hang in there. We have one and a half more weeks until game time and we're looking forward to it.
