final draft

Our First ever  season of Norton girls Lacrosse had our ups and downs but as a team we put in 100 percent during practice and especially games. We focused a lot on improving as team by having game after game. Facing a lot of tough teams that at times we could keep up with and other times it was a struggle to get through. We had some great moments that also turned into wins but ever got to that point. Every player has improved so much since the beginning of the season to now. We all put 100 percent every chance we got to play the game. Also as we worked on our skills at practice and our mistakes that we made the last game. To continue to fight and work as hard as we could till the game was over. Sweating and smelly shoes to blisters on your feet you went out on that field and put everything on the line.In my eyes being a team member the score of every game doesn't reflect on how well we did. The score shows we lost but to me we won some games and then it went downhill from their. We had some awful games that at points i started to give up and lose hope that we as a team would broke out of it. We would always break out but play well and then do horrible our next one. Mary our coach had some frustrating moments throughout our season by getting upset with us as a team and calls being made that should have been called. Throughout this season their are mean girls on teams that go over the top and then aggressive players that just wanted to run up and  score a goal and be known as the best. I don't miss getting step on or hit with the ball by my team mates as they would do it by mistake but it hurt so badly. But working hard and running as fast as you can pays off by getting goal is what i learned and more. Seeing that there are so many ways girls play the game makes you want to be known for what you do so people are some what afraid of you during the game. We had one specific game where we tied with Med field Junior Varsity team and we got a goal to beat them and we got to taken away because there was a call that didn't happen. As a team when you are on the sidelines you are freaking out butterflies in your stomach just waiting to  get that last goal with 30 seconds left in the game. And they get the ball and just let the clock run. They out did us that day but that made us as a team think about what we have to do differently so that we can win. Sooner or later we would keep trying to win but at the end of the season there are games that we won by playing better and our skill level has better. To me everyone on our team did a great job on the season and we went out there and put everything on the  line and give it our best shot. The effort we put into every game and our performance made us win.
