You Can Take the Girl Out of the Hood, But...

In my infinite quest to peel off the ick that is South Sac (my apologies to those of you who may have a lingering fondness for it), I find myself in that Godfather scene where the guy goes, "Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in": A relatively oft-used quote for a third-rate third part.

Today's nostalgia is brought to you by Cosumnes River College. The CRC Atheltic Coordinator called me to invite me to a Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony (not me, you dope - my volleyball coach), and when recently asked what his best team was, our coach said "1985", which included me and 6 other girls. It was a cool team, I have to say. In a world, where 12 is the usual number, we mere 7 managed to take the league by storm, winning the conference and were therefore observed by actual "scouts". Two of us were recruited to go on to Humboldt State to play for another 2 years.

But anyway, I haven't seen these girls in 15-20 years, and scouring the internet yielded little, but just enough to get the ball rolling to where we might get almost everyone, except for the one in Hawaii. The funny thing is, everyone else is still here in the Sacto area, some of them in Elk Grove, not far from CRC. In a couple of weeks we will all be reunited with high-pitched Oh-My-Gods and Hi-How-Are-Yous. I don't know about you, but I can't wait!
