Tumble Talk: Shannon Skochko

Hey Terps Fans!

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! I know our team enjoyed our break, but we are all eager to get back into the gym and start preparing for our Red vs. Black intersquad on Friday, December 12th!

Following our closed door intrasquad last week, we were back in the gym training on Sunday. Everybody was excited to keep working and tighten up the mistakes we had. We had a great high energy practice followed by a hard lift. We had another high energy practice on Monday as well. We gave it all we had because we knew a break was coming up. On Tuesday before we left for home, everyone got a lift in with our strength coach Shawn. After lift, we were able to leave for home.

I was able to go home to Pennsylvania on Tuesday night, however, I was not the only GymTerp to spend Thanksgiving in my hometown. Nikki Chung came home with me, since the break from classes was not long enough to fly back to Australia. I always miss my GymTerps when I go home, so it was nice to have one of them with me over the break. We had a relaxing break and got to spend time with my family. We were able to go Black Friday shopping, get our hair done, see a movie, and spend a day studying at the local coffee shop. Two of the days, we went to a local gym and got some nice workouts in.

I just got back to campus a few hours ago and cannot wait to see my teammates at practice.

Thanks for reading! Remember that our Red vs. Black intrasquad is coming up soon on December 12, at 7 p.m. in at XFINITY Center.

Be sure to tune in next week!
