Lacrosse

With Spring comes lacrosse season once again!   I'm a captain on the JV team, which I am okay with, however I do have some sad news.  This will be my last year of lacrosse.  I tried out again for the varsity team, went on the Spring Break trip, and was cut again for the second year in a row.  Last year, the coaches noted "speed and decisions in a game".  As a result, I started on JV last year and played a club team last summer.  This year, the coaches noted "not being able to stop an attacker", "wouldn't make contributions to the varsity program", "ability to move up and down the field" and basically told me to think twice before trying out again next year.  This is the last year I am eligible to play on JV and instead of wasting months of effort and being cut out of program next year, I'm going to stop while I'm ahead and get back into horseback riding, which I've been thinking about more and more lately.  Honestly, I've just lost respect for the varsity coaches and I'm way more happy on JV this year than I would have been on Varsity.  There are six other tenth graders on JV this year and we've grown really close which I enjoy.  I've learned a lot from tryouts this year and I just look at this whole experience as a lesson to be learned and a small bump in the road.
