Ahhh guys today went really well!! Like SO well! My worries weren’t even necessary. We started out with a meeting just to discuss the locker room and extra stuff, then we ran up about a mile or two to the practice field. The run felt really good, and I wasn’t that tired at all! We did some more running there but it wasnt bad and we streched. Then we started doing shuttles, and at first I was really nervous but then I got into it! I was really worried about the head coach watching, but after a while I let it go and just did my thing. After that we did some defensive drills which were really cool, and the coach split us up into seniors and juniors and varsity sophomores (they’re varsity), then sophomores and freshman (that’s where I was) and were JV. I’m honestly not upset about not being on Varsity! There’s a lot of people so I definitely get more time on JV, and hopefully ill be pulled up for playoffs!

So as JV we started doing a catching and throwing drill, and I partnered up with my friend Jessica and we had sooo much fun. We moved around and tried different stuff while the beginners got the hang of it, and our coach even used us as an example which was cool. I did REALLY well in the catching drill! Like really well! I was sooo happy. My catching was really nice and so was my throwing.

So that’s a summary! I’m actually THANKFUL to be on JV because I get to have more of an understanding of the game which I didn’t really get much learning from the coaches last year. And I honestly think I’m gonna play attack….and it’s exciting. SHSLAX2012 let’s gooooo!
