A1: Definitely playing soccer for a team that loves the game and making varsity.

Q2: What are your feelings towards Cumberland Valley?

A2:: On the field, I want to beat their butts and dislike them, but off of the field I’m friends with some of their players.

Q3: Coming off of the bench for a rivalry game, how did that motivate you when you got into the game?

A3: Well I sat on the bench for most of the first half so I really wanted to go in the game. And while sitting on the bench, I kept thinking bout how great it would feel to score against CV. [C]oming in the game substituting a senior made me want to score even more. I was just really excited to play.

Q4: What do you think makes the girls soccer team so special this year.

A4: Everybody always wants to get out on the field and play. We are willing to be coached, and we all want to win and only win.
