Men's Teams

Start off by saying once again Tula has improved both in numbers, commitment, and quality. Picking 23 guys for our top team was as difficult as it has ever been. Note that nobody has a permanent spot on the A team or B team (last 3 years there have been moves). All choices are made based on the tryouts and previous experiences with each player; touring in the summer had a significant impact on improving players.

On the current A team, there are many players who are in a specific roll. These rolls may not include significant playing time or primary activity. Playing time will not be equally distributed on either team (more even on the B team). Playing time will always be competed for, meaning practice commitment and general quality of play on the field. Also, lines will be tightened depending on who we are playing against.

Finally, I understand that some of you will be disappointed with being on a B team. I'll remind you that I spent 3 years on the B team captaining 2 of those years. I wouldn't be where I am today without that experience, and the opportunity to play a bigger roll in a smaller pond can outweigh the benefits of the small fish in the big pond.

I would just like to say that those are two very solid teams! Both should bring a high level of competition to the university tournaments.
