Campbell `would have regretted' not playing hockey again Continued from p. 19 "My mindset was that I was ju st going in for fun. I hadn't played com petitively in a while, nobody was paying me to play, so I was ju st go ing to take it in stride and have fun with it," she said. "I was surprised how fast it cam e back, th ough." Campbell has excelled in her return. She been a stabilizing force on a Furies blueline riddled with injuries.

W hile thrilled to learn Furies general manager Rebecca Michael had put her name forward for consideration for the all-star game, Campbell fig ured that's as far as it would go. "There's just so m uch talent in this league," she said. Instead, `the team grandma' as she describes herself, will be suiting up at the Air Canada Cen tre alongside the many of the best players in the game. It's an opportunity she' s excited about. One she never expected. "I'm so glad I came back," she said. "I would have always wondered about it and I think I would have regretted it."
