Hello.

Hey there I'm Amanda.

I'm a Junior and I play softball and soccer for my high school. I have been a member of the Varsity softball team for one year and the Varsity soccer team for two years. As a sophomore I was also one of the captains of the Junior Varsity team.

Last night was the semi-finals at soccer districts. My team has had a tough time this season but we pulled it together towards the end of the season. I am coming off a neck injury so I have been unable to play for the last three weeks, but I got the chance to play again last night. Like I said the game was fantastic and was tied at one a piece at the end of regulation. We went into overtime and at the end of overtime we were still tied at one, so we went into a shootout. I was selected to take a penalty kick, and shot third. Luckily I made my PK, but we were still tied which resulted in us going into sudden death.

We lost a heart breaker, but it didn't feel like we lost. We took the number one team in our class into a shootout. Although the season is over I look forward to next season, and will greatly miss the seniors on my team.
