After a tough but successful first week of practice with the team, we celebrated the arrival of our newest teammate Daisy Locke. Daisy, a survivor of a brain tumor, joins us through the Friends of Jaclyn organization. The Friends of Jaclyn organization matches children with a college team, creating a new family for the child and providing them
with support, friendship, and love (http://www.friendsofjaclyn.org ). Daisy was welcomed to the team with lots of laughs, love, and of course, lots of Babson gear! Over some pizza, each class had the opportunity to introduce themselves so Daisy would get to know us a little better. We also got to know Daisy better too. We learned how she loves Starbursts, has a great laugh, and keeps Mr. Locke on his toes! After introductions, we split into our green and white competition teams and spent the next 30 minutes laughing and playing games, much to Daisy's amusement. In the end, the white team pulled out the win earning 5 points towards the season's competition. Daisy, being a member of the
white team, was very happy with the outcome. After a great day, it was clear that Daisy fits right in with our family. To make it official, we will be having an adoption ceremony in the spring where we formally adopt Daisy to our team and celebrate our time together.
