The spring season is a time where our team comes together,
and we put in the work to prepare for our fall season. Whether that is lifting,
practicing, or off the field this spring has been very productive with our team
coming together and us realizing the goals we want to accomplish and the
dedication we must have to reach them. This spring started off with us
traveling to Illinois University for a 7v7 tournament, where we ended up going
2-2. Even though we knew we should of done better than this, throughout the day
you could see our team improving and having more confidence with the ball, and
therefore we won the last two games. This was a fun day because it was
different from playing 11v11 all the time, and you got to see the game from
another perspective.
Our next
game was against Slippery Rock and this was extremely fun and crazy because we
had to shovel our field before the game because of all the snow, since we live
in the great state of Ohio. This was our first 11v11 game and outdoor game
since our tournament game in November. With that said, we started out a little
slow in the first half where the half closed being 0-0. During half time
coached talked to us about how we just had to calm down and just have fun. In
the second half we came out a lot stronger, and we ended up winning 2-1.
The start
of our spring season has been very exciting and demanding, but it is all paying
off since we all got PR’s in the weight room this week. After we come back from
spring break, we have a few more games that we are looking forward to then it’s
in to summer to prepare for a successful fall season! Lets go Flashes!
