Growing up as a child was very met morale and a sometimes fun other times not experience. Many memories are developed during your childhood but many memories are forgotten. Memories that are remembered are apart of who we are today an what makes us how we are. These memories and experiences tech us life lessons that we use without knowing it everyday. A memorable day for me was in a lacrosse game in the 2012-13 lacrosse season. My 2012-13 lacrosse started off with a 10-3 lose to Central Square and then more losses down the road to teams from all over. It was a rough season for all of us on the team and for the coaches. Kids showed up to practice and worked hard but the record wasn't showing that. Staying positive and keeping our …show more content…
heads up was the main goal for the team. As long as we kept our heads up we still saw faith in our team. Then came the game that the team had been waiting for. The game of the season was against Cazenovia.
This was one of the best teams in our league behind West-Genese and Fayetville-Manlius. We started the game off good and quickly jumped up to a 1-0 lead. Our goalie had 5 saves an our defense was holding against their offense very well. Our offense was passing the ball very well and made most of the shots they took. Ending the half the score was 3-1 us. Our coach was very proud of us and let us know that during half-time. Starting the second half off you could tell Cazenovia was upset because they started playing dirty. Then came a turning point of the game. Our goalie made a save and I was running down field to catch the ball. I turned around to catch the ball then as soon as I turned the other way I got hit hard and layed on the field knocked out for a few seconds. Coach Culandra ran out very quickly and told me to stay there while Kelly the trainer ran over. After try looked at me Kelly gave me a concussion test and then I noticed my helmet was shattered. No one ever thought the helmets could shatter like mine did. Kelly took me in and gave me a new helmet which I then used to finish the game off in. Sadly we lost
8-6. This moment had stuck with me through out all of my sports. I am always looking around me before I get a ball so that I can brace to get hit. If I could give someone advice about a sport that involved contact if tell then to always look around themselves.
