Meet our teams!

From Spokane:
Got Choc Milk, 10th grade girls team
Unikornz, 8th grade boys team

From Seattle:
The Chieftains, womens team
Named after the past mascot of their alma mater, Seattle University, team captain Jessie and the Chieftains are training for their return to Hoopfest after a promising 2nd place finish last year in their competitive bracket.

Glory Daze, mens team
Team captain Joe is competing in his 10th year at Hoopfest and will be playing alongside his team mates of two years. Winning multiple championships already, Joe hopes to lead his team to a strong showing this year.

Nutrition experts Emily Edison, M.S., R.D. and Michelle Weinbender, R.D. met with the teams and provided a nutrition briefing prior to the start of the training period.
The experts focused on showing the teams how to fuel up for practice or game time by eating nutrient-rich foods; and how to refuel, rehydrate, and replenish the body post-practice with low-fat chocolate milk.

At the briefing, Emily provided her teams with some tips on eating healthy and refueling with low-fat chocolate milk. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lRW2j91tp-I

Team captains Jessie and Joe gave us their reactions and thoughts on chocolate milk for recovery and Emily's presentation. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8S-1zw9QUks
