My daughter is a freshman at SU and told me she is going to tryout to be Otto.  I am sure there are a bunch of kids trying out but I am wondering what they heck they are looking for?  A friend of mine was a state champion gymnast that ended up being the Temple Owl but is that needed?

She has spirit\spunk.  I mentioned in another thread that when we dropped her off my wife realized we hadn't bought her football & hoops tickets.  My daughter said not to worry she bought them with her own money over the summer.

She is athletic.  She played a sport every season in high school,  soccer\indoor & outdoor track - 4 by 400 relay league champ and joined the SU club triathlon team already (I never thought of that as a team thing) so she could handle any physical part of it.  She also truly bleeds Orange and has since she was a todler.  I have pictures of her on my shoulders with her face painted and wearing an orange wig walking in front of Sadler (her current dorm) to a hoops game when she was 5.

So anyways this is long and drawn out but I know I have read of former Ottos on the board and I was checking to see if there is any advice to be given to her for tryouts.  Other than carry a travel Fabreeze with her all the time if she does get it.

Thanks!
