This is mainly because I am the only female on the team. Being a female manager of an all-guys team is quite an experience. The thing I enjoy most is We relationship with the guys. We are all pretty good friends, but it is nothing more than friendship. It's like having 28 brothers who all look out for you and yet they still pick on me like a kid sister. It's a mutual understanding that we have; I do extra things for them and they do little things for me. I get teased, poked, bruised, and generally laughed at but I have been able to come right back at them with the same stuff. I don't see anything wrong with having a female manager, and I don't think that any of the guys do either. I'm not a woman's libber; the only reason I'm manager is because I want to help. I enjoy helping the guys out as best as I can. I can't do everything a guy manager could, but_l do the best that I can. The guys on the team are something else, it's great having 28 brothers, and even though I say I'd trade them in for cuter ones, I wouldn't. It's already taken them six week to get used to me or has it? Athlete of the week - Steve Pappas Steve Pappas has netted many points for the tennis team.
