The Boys are Back in Town

Most of the players, 17 of them, have arrived in Bradenton, Fla. and are getting settled on the IMG campus. There are a couple more coming in tonight, and a few more tomorrow so by Monday everyone will be present and accounted for as camp gets in to full swing.

Today the team went through some jogging and played a little 5 v. 2 to get their legs back. The players are coming from all over the world - literally - fresh off preseason trips with their respective club teams. Here are a couple examples:

Chad Barrett came straight from Mexico, calling the trip "a really good experience, and a good environment to gain some experience, especially for the young players"

Tally Hall was in Cyprus, and said "it wasn't what I thought it would be, but I've always wanted to go check it out and I'm glad we got to have that experience."

Kamani Hill flew in from Germany and said "it was cold and gray, but at least it wasn't snowing!" (those of us who came from Chicago have no sympathy)
