~~ Monologue ~~

   " When I start something I have to finish it. I always need to play at an advanced level to sharpen my skills. I love sports and I want to play them as long as I can.

       I want to know that I am good at what I do. I enjoy spending time with my friends and one way I do that is through sports. My favorite sport is lacrosse and it’s even more fun with my friends. I started playing lacrosse in 1999 and in 2002 I decide to try out for the COBRA travel team. Unfortunately for me, I did not make the team, but all my friends that tried out made it. I played in the recreational league instead and I practiced and practiced.

       Then the next year came and I headed off to COBRA tryouts. This time I got cut again, but it went better. I made it to the final round and I wasn’t cut at the field. I was one of the last people called to get cut, but that didn’t really help boost my confidence. So yet again, I was playing “rec” lacrosse. This particular season did however boost my confidence and I felt I was a better player. Being one of the most experienced players on my team, I helped my team go to the championship after we had lost all of our regular season games.

        That summer, I went to a camp called “Tom Marechek’s All-Pro Lacrosse Camp”. This camp really sharpened my skills. My faceoffs, stickwork, shooting, and overall level of gameplay was bettered, and it gave me a chance to learn from great college and professional players. I knew then that I could accomplish my goal.

       The tryouts for 2004 were the toughest, but I knew I could do it. I did everything the coaches wanted and I gave my all. The coach even remembered me and told me how I had improved and how he liked how I kept on coming out for the team. I scooped up balls, threw good passes with my right and left hand, and I even scored a few times. A couple of days later, the coach called to congratulate me on making the team. I knew that year was going to be a challenge, but that was perfect for me. I was right where I wanted to be."
