Jumping

Saturday brought D1 women’s trick and men’s jump. I was up at 6:00 to take Drake to his hotel to catch a ride to the lake (and promptly came back and went back to bed for a couple hours). We made a stop at Coffee Call for a coffee and beignets - yum! 

We then enjoyed the day cheering on the skiers and soaking in the sun. Drake was jumper three on the team and had his 2nd best jump of his career. He fought really hard for the landing on his first jump and landed the other two jumps with no problem. Super proud of his efforts this year and how hard he worked. The winning jumper jumped 193 feet (three feet off the collegiate record). 

We freshened up at the hotel, and headed to the banquet. Marshall and I ended up at the kids table with a boat drive, one other Miami parent and six kids from Purdue, but we made the most of it. Miami placed 10th in D1 which ties their best showing (I think). 

We then headed to “The Station” which was rented out for the event to have a drink and check out the experience. Even though we were tired, I’m glad we went - a good reminder to “have a bias to yes!” 

We are proud of Drake for trying something new and glad he is taking in all that college has to offer. We’re also happy to have new experiences - never too old to do new things. ❤️
