Well after 4 and a half crucial days of driving we finally made it to Morgantown, WV. Thanks to the help of Forest, Andrea, Charlie, Brandon, Melissa, Charisse, and Griffin, we were able to pack up the truck on Wednesday night and finish loading up on Thursday morning. Reese started driving the truck late morning, while I stayed behind to finish a few things. I then caught up to her at the end of the night in Elko, Nevada where we stayed for the night. The next 3 days were 12-14 hour long driving days, making stops for the night in Sidney, Nebraska; Foristell, Missouri; and Cambridge, Ohio. We then drove the remaining 2 hours yesterday and drove in to Morgantown. We had lunch, and looked at a house to rent. I then went on to attend our first team meeting. During the 2 hour meeting I was introduced as the new assistant coach, and met a few of the players afterward. When the head coach started talking about the press and how we represent the state of West Virginia as well as our sponsor NIKE, I realized how I had completely forgot about what it was like to be apart of a major university sports program, and how much I am going to enjoy this new journey.
So after discussions with Reese about the house we had looked at, we felt this house fit what we need, and decided to take it. The landlord allowed us to start moving in as well, and we spent the night last night in our new living room. Today will be a funfilled day of unloading the truck. But things will start to pick up at the university, as I will be back at the baseball field later today, going to 6:30am weights, as well as attending a meeting with the whole athletics department tomorow morning. I will keep you all posted. And thank you very much for those of you who helped us move. We cut our arrival time pretty close, and could not have done it without you!
