I remember...

I remember last week when the middle school lacrosse team that I coach had their first shut out. It was against a st. Martin's and St. Andrew's combination team, due to their lack of players. They still didn't have enough players for a official game, so we had to give them some of our players. Obviously, we gave them three of our worst players. The whole game we were dominating with the ball never leaving our side. One time we did let up, which lead to a few risky defensive plays. But for once, our A.D.H.D. goalie stood in one place and had six saves in order to complete his shut out. They did have one huge defender that was probably as big as our other coach Nathan Davis (6-4, 220 pds). Evertime one of our players got close to him, he would explode and destroy our little 6th graders. Our best player Alex Park made a move down the middle, split-dodging his way to the goal. He was slashed on the first dodge and on the second dodge, the big oafy defender came over and with one swing snapped his d-pole my player's ribs. Thankfully, Alex was alright. He's our best player and we really need him.
