Ringette is a team sport. much like hockey, only the sticks we use to play with have no blade. instead, there is a metal tip on the end of it. instead of a puck, a blue, rubber ring is used. players spear the ring with the tip of their stick. The object of the game is the same as in hockey. players must move the ring from one end of the ice to the other, while trying to score goals. one thing. the ring needs to be passed over the two blue lines on the ice surface.

In retrospect, as I walk away from the sports desk at the Round Up, I leave you with the following thoughts and observations. Covering sports for New Mexico State allows one to see how much these athletes love their sports. Going behind the scenes, to practices, inside locker rooms and to press conferences brings one closer to the athlete.

It was a good chance to find out if all those power-skating lessons would finally pay off for Waterloo’s Emily Griffiths as she faced-off against break-out specialists from Team Alberta in the national junior ringette finals.
