Traveling with the Toreros

I look out the window of our charter bus, now traveling from Stockton to Moraga.

I’m thinking of ways to put athletic road trips into words — to express the chaos, the organization, the stress, the fun of it all. It’s more difficult than I thought.

Years of memories flood my head, from my first year as a scared freshman who barely spoke, to now, a senior on the volleyball team, trying to be a voice of reason and wisdom for the younger girls. I think of the relationships I’ve established from being roommates with almost everyone on the team at some point.
