Well the first week of practice was here and is gone. The teams have been announced and we’re just four days away from our first game. The varsity team looks good, they are working well together and the work ethic has been much better this year. Hopefully this week we will get 100% healthy, and continue to work together. University will be a tough challenge on Friday and should provide a good measuring stick as to where we stand this early in the season. Lewis and Clark the following day will also be a good match, we lost 1-0 to them last year on a goal in the final two minutes of the game. I think we will be in for another close one but I predict the game will be decided much earlier than that.
A Junior Varsity note: We had 27 people on the roster and are now down to 23, which means playing time will be at a premium. I wanted to remind everyone that there is no equal playing time in High School Soccer. Your playing time is decided by three components, Skill level, work ethic, and attitude. Not just one component will earn you playing time; you will need at least two. My best advice is to work so hard that the coaches have to find a spot for you.
