Varsity team

meaningful and rewarding leadership activity is paving the way for my Varsity Volleyball team to play in the lower state championship game during my senior year. Our practices consisted of two hours long and five days a week of different strategic drills. This constant tough process led to poor attitudes and technique. Although my personality is timid, I took it upon my self to step out of my comfort zone and respectively confront my teams stagnant standpoint. Through this approach, I was…

The sense of family is what I enjoyed most about being part of the hockey team. We all look out for each other and support each other. We focus on the positive. We do not ignore the negative, we address it and move on. We are there for each other during the season as well as the off-season. If I needed advice about an important decision I needed to make or a reference for a job, I would not hesitate to reach out to Coach George. I trust him to give me good advice and I know he would be honest…

an expressive hiss the door slid open. The cold, moist weather sprinted in the door painting goose bumps over every inch of our bodies. To stay warm, we had to keep any unprotected skin tucked away from the harsh October weather. The Sartell Varsity Soccer Team and I slowly inched our way off the bus in an attempt to stay as long as possible in the warmth. Taking my first step onto the wet cement sidewalk, I was battered with frigid snow and strong winds. I had only just stepped foot on the…

for getting cut from the Goodpasture Christian Varsity Football team. Let’s look back into that hard time in his life. It was 2008 and the Goodpasture Christian Varsity Football Team was coming off a year where they went all the way to the state semifinals. They had great players such as Keenan Reynolds, Benny Cunningham, and Jalen Ramsey. They were projected to go all the way to the Tennessee State Championship that year. As would happen to any team that had a chance of winning a state…

characteristic was to make my High School Varsity Cheer team as a freshman without any previous cheering experience. The sport interested me, so I decided to give it a shot. I worked extremely hard to make the JV team, and was ecstatic about that. Even though I had accomplished my goal of making the team, my self-motivation caused me to continue to work at home, on my own, to further improve my skills. Two weeks into practicing with the JV team, the Varsity Coach noticed my tremendous…

A meaningful challenge I faced was trying to make my school’s varsity soccer team. I’m not the best soccer player, but this challenge taught me that hard work can definitely make up for talent. It also taught me about resilience and perseverance. My sophomore year I failed to score in the championship game that costed my team win. I felt defeated because not only had I let down myself, but also my team because they were depending on me to do my job and I didn’t. This dropped my confidence in my…

consensus, collecting money, and purchasing them for the Varsity Girls’ Soccer Team. A couple of days after I was delegated to be in charge of warm-up duty, I realized I should just accept the responsibility and stop putting it off any longer. After researching online for hours for the best looking jackets and deals, and calling multiple companies, I found what seemed to be a good quality jacket for a good price. The next day, I showed the team a picture of the jacket with the price. Everyone…

It was the biggest night of our school history. My Proctor High School varsity soccer team and I were on our way to Morrisville, New York, where we would be playing our regionals championship match. Heading into the championship game, we were all focused and let nothing distract us from our mental state of concentration. There was nothing more we wanted than to make the night ours and make history for our beloved school. After triumphing in our sectional championship game against Cicero-North…

that school spirit has to be channeled somewhere! Abbi has been on the middle school cheer squad, the junior varsity cheer squad, and now the varsity cheer squad at the end of her freshman year. She may have physical limitations but never doubt her spirited personality. When asked about practice, this is one student who will always be available no matter what the day or time. Her support team is exceptional, but it is also very…

It was the end of my sophomore soccer season on Junior Varsity. We didn't win a single game and got blown out by large margins game after game. It hurt me to leave the field on our last game with so little success in the entire season. I was deeply disappointed and wanted deep down to have more success . I knew next year was different I was going to pour my heart and soul and make the Varsity and move on from this year. Thats what I did the next summer I showed up and early to every day of…
