… with your best shot; fire away! Pat Benatar may have sung this in her biggest-selling album, Crimes of Passion, in 1980, but this past weekend, it was more of a taunt this past weekend as the Stedsmen took to the paintball fields of Mishawaka. Taking advantage of excellent weather, the Gentlemen partook in a Steds tradition that stretches back even before Fr. Ralph's time. Playing a variety of paintball games, pitting Stedsman against Stedsman, Stedsmen of all ages took aim at each other all in good fun. And with fifty-five residents present, there was no shortage of targets! While firing away was going on, Fr. Ralph, fortunately, was tasked with arranging some light refreshment from Chick Fil A. One of the participants was Luke Patterson, a Steds freshman, resident Texan, AND first time paintballer. On participating in both his first paintball game as well as Steds Paintball Excursion, Patterson shared, "Paintball with the Gentlemen was super fun. I felt very much in community with my hall and it was a great way to develop friendships with my class. It was truly an honor to play with the best and oldest hall on campus."
