  For quarterback Jo Kilby 2017 was a bit of a year! It started in February with a trip to Helsinki where the Birmingham Lions beat the Wolverines.

  Mention students to the greater UK population and they will most likely have the opinion that they stay in bed until lunch time, have some beans on toast or a pot noodle for lunch, rock up late for a lecture or two, then go out partying into the small hours.
