After 2 loooooooong weeks of anticipating November 29th, it finally came. SOLmates everywhere anxiously awaited results of our submission to Five Ultimate for a Growth Sponsorship and on November 29th those results were in. Myself and co-captain Heather went to practice with full knowledge that SOL had received this sponsorship, but decided it was best to wait for the right moment to let all the ladies of SOL know. This led to me having to lie and mumble something about East Coast being 2 hours behind so they probably wouldn't send emails till later. Of course everyone believe it because they had to. After hanging out with our homie Mr. T for a quick minute, the time was right. It seemed only right that Beef, who spent extensive hours converting the video to the right format ("Because Brit is an idiot and got the wrong type of camera" quote from Beef) and editing this masterpiece, would be the one to let everyone know we got it! After Beef read the email to all and we disclosed the awesome hookups we will be getting on gear, the cheering was rather loud. I would like to apologize to the Womens Basketball coach who was probably trying to do work in her office at this time so most likely disturbed by our shouts and tears of joy (ok, so the tears might be an exaggeration...).
And there you have it! SOL gets sponsored by Five. With that, we all know how extra hard we will be working to show all of the ultimate world what's up! If you or anyone you know is amazing at designing jersey's WE WANT YOU!!! Please contact me via email (gartnebm@uwec.edu) if you are interested in submitting any jersey designs for a fresh new SOL look! Sublimated or not, show us what you got! (that rhymes)
