Soccer has been a big part of my life growing up. The biggest thing for me going into high school‚ freshman year‚ was making the soccer team.

As a junior year in high school our varsity team had already been to state 2 years in a row‚ and lost in the finals both times.

The high school is a different story there’s two big hallways‚ classes outside on the hill‚ the band hall‚ and the event center. The sophomores were nice‚ the juniors and seniors weren’t so nice and it never changed over the years. I know senior year hasn’t finished but I don’t think it’ll be better than my freshmen year‚ because I’ve been stressing every day since this year started. All
