Kris started playing on a women's hockey league this fall/winter and is loving it! She was slotted into the defense(wo)man position because she was one of the few players who could skate backwards. While not initially excited about that (it's cooler to be a forward apparently), she has quickly become quite adept and is a tough defensive player.
She's typically a bit more modest about her skills, and frequently jokes that a game is successful when she doesn't trip on the blue line. As her number one fan, I can speak to her incredible skating prowess and rapidly developing hockey skills. Not bad for just picking up the sport at age thirty-something.
