During spring break, Elizabeth traveled with the New Haven lacrosse team to Florida to train and play against two strong Division II colleges, Lynn and Rollins. Although Elizabeth has traveled without us, she's never flown without us - and she has certainly never spent a week in close quarters with 25 other people! This trip took her well outside of her comfort zone, but she persevered. Like her mother (!), Elizabeth is a control freak so not really having much of an itinerary or knowing what was happening all week was really difficult for her. One way that she got through that was to document her trip for us on a private snapchat story. We looked forward to following her adventures as they unfolded and it was a good way for her to have some control over the situation. New Haven lost to #15 Lynn University in a very close match on Wednesday and then suffered a thrilling overtime loss to #6 Rollins College. Overall, Elizabeth had a good trip, although she was happy to back in New Haven on Saturday afternoon.
