Field Hockey

Thanks to the encouragement from a middle school soccer teammate, Allison decided to take a leap of faith and tryout for the GOHS field hockey team!  We watched it during the Olympics to learn the rules, bought gear online and went out to the park the day before tryouts so she could practice using the stick.  She went to 3 days of tryouts this week and anxiously waited for the coach to post the roster on the school's website.
Allison was #14 for tryouts and she made VARSITY! As a Freshman!  So incredibly proud of her and loved seeing the smile on her face.  She was beyond excited!
She is going to be one busy girl trying to juggle M-F field hockey practice, T/Th soccer practice, homework and WSB, but she's got this!  We are excited to learn a new sport and cheer her on.
Way to kick some field hockey butt Allison!!
