Update

This past two months have gone by crazy fast. Fall ball, ski team camping trips, Super 7s, and all of the dryland training began one day and seemed to end the next. 

Park City fall ball consists of one practice a week and a couple scrimmages to finish it off. Last Monday was our last official practice, and tonight will be our first scrimmage! Be at Matt Knoop Field at 5:30 pm to watch the upcoming PC lacrosse team take on Jordan. You might also catch a glimpse of me flailing around in goal.

Super 7s pick up games ended last week. These were fun scrimmages against the other HS teams, with just 7 girls on the field from each team (not including the goalie). Coaches weren't allowed to be there and parents weren't allowed to advise the players. This was the time for teams to bond and build their teamwork! Park City had to split into two teams since we have a large number of players- you can view the rosters here. Both teams played great, but Park City Black won the championships against Brighton!

Super 7s is also a great time to try new things and practice plays or moves in low-stake games. For me, this was practicing goalie. Coming into the spring lacrosse season at Park City High School, the position of goalie is currently vacant. And since I played goalie in the Junior league last year, I'm looking to split the position with Madeline Komisar, a new-comer to lacrosse. We'll see how that all works out...

Dryland training led up to USSA Testing (held at the CEO) last Sunday, the 12th. This was a standardized test for ski team athletes, and included tests like movement ability, vertical jump, tri-jump, box jumps, and a pacer test. The pacer test was a bust because of the rain- it was moved inside to the gym, where tennis shoes slide all over the place while pivoting. As for PCST dryland, it will continue into the winter season with indoor workouts.
