After playing a few seasons at the U15 level in other organizations, my parents and I made the decision to come back to my home team to re-familiarize myself in preparation for JV next year and high school the year after. Overall, the season was a success as we earned the #1 seed for the postseason playoffs. Even though we had a difficult loss in the championship final, we went down fighting and playing as a unit. As the starting middie (draw position), I continued to grow in skill and on-field awareness. Playing down at my age level this season allowed me to take a leadership role and provide stability to the team.
