Lock, Stock and Barrel

"You think you can keep us out of Florida? We're moving in lock, stock and barrel. We're gonna be in the pool. We're gonna be in the clubhouse. We're gonna be all over that shuffle board!" - Frank Costanza

A gap of over two weeks between Opening Weekend and your next game isn't exactly ideal - but it's something that the Yellow Jackets have had to deal with since squaring off against Calvin College on March 1st in Florence, KY. The Niners will depart tomorrow evening for their Spring Trip, in Ft. Myers, FL. The Jackets will play seven games after crossing the FGL, starting Mon. March 11th and concluding on Friday the 15th.

Although, it'll be nice to escape the snow-ridden terrain of Northwest Ohio - it is in a sense, a business trip. After all, once the Swarm returns, there will be only four days of down time until DC opens up its home schedule v. Ohio Northern (Tues. 3/19 at 4pm).

Curious as to what's on the Spring Trip checklist? Fear no more.
Make sure you've got everything packed - see you in the sunshine state!
