Recap And Upcoming Games

     This season has been a season of growth for the Gaelettes and it seems we are still growing. Our record is now 4-6-3 and we've got 3 games left to the end of the regular season. All of these upcoming games are challenges to face, as they are against some of our top competitors. In the past games we've played, we had instensity but also minor errors. There was, of course, one game where we lacked the drive we generally found in ourselves and it showed on the field. However, we luckily came out victorious in the game. We are meeting back up with Cheshire at our home field and there is no doubt in my mind we can regain the intensity we've had all season.

     Above is the Gaelettes half-time cheer before returning to the field at Sheehan High School and Samantha Hartmayer scoring a beautiful goal from a free kick. Both games were very important to us Gaelettes recently. Though we lost to Guilford, we ended up scoring two goals against them. This is an improvement from the beginning of the season when we met them at their home field. This time we picked up our intensity and level of play, narrowly losing by 1 goal. Then in our game against Sheehan we had many shots on goal, but could only get 1 in the net; though that's all we needed to come out with a victory of 1-0.

 

     The next two weeks are certianly going to be important ones for us Gaelettes, as the season comes to a close, it is time to put all the work we did at practice and as a team out on the field. Endless practices and bus rides have all led to these last couple games. And knowing my team, we wouldn't let all of that go to waste. I'm not saying we'll win, but we will try our hardest and put our all into every game to get the chance to come out on top. And that's just the Gaelette way.
