2018 Season Reflection

As we reflect back on the season we can’t help but think of all of the great memories that were made on the field, but also off of the field. From traveling to California during preseason, getting chipotle for winning our first conference game, to hosting a 5k in the snow, it was a season to remember. As we send our 6 seniors off into the world, we asked them what their favorite memory of their senior season was.

Emily Skogseth reflects on the season with her favorite memory; “We were all at practice scrimmaging or playing a game to goal. Kylie Lamberty was going to shoot the ball and so she claims, that Chase Miller took the ball off of her foot right as she was about to shoot and whiffed it completely. It was not even how funny the fall was afterwards, but how loud the whiff was in the first place. The whole practice stopped as the entire team sat and laughed for a good 5 minutes.”  

Midfielder Chase Miller also reflected on this fantastic whiff of the ball expressing that her favorite memory was “helping Kylie fall.” She also expressed that all of the fun festivities we got to do in California during preseason including going whale watching, training at Chula Vista, and getting to travel with the team!

Kylie Lamberty’s favorite memory for some reason was not, her epic fall. On learning her fall was one of the best memories of the season she says, "Well I would just like to credit Chase with all the work she put into that whiff and really thank my teammates for the support."

Her actual favorite memory of the season was getting to host the team over for a potluck before our St. Thomas game. “We made pasta for everyone and had the team to our house. It was so fun to show them around and cook for everyone. We got to play fun games after and it was just a great night!”

Sally Morrows favorite memory came from a windy day at practice. Sally said "My favorite off the field memory was when Ava chased down Coach's practice plan for so long and fell twice while doing it. It was kind of a tense practice and that just made everything funny and less stressful. Thank you, Ava!" 

Trina Rinke's favorite memory was getting to visit Chula Vista. She said, "They had a game room with every game you could imagine. From board games, to ping pong, to the Wii. It was super fun to be able to all hangout and play all of the different games together. The trip itself was just so great and that was one of my favorite memories including beating Coach and everyone else at ping pong because I'm the master." I think First year Abby Goodno would say otherwise, but keep dreaming Trina!
