Last Friday my team came out victorious to start the season 1-0.
We were very excited our team overcame great adversity and came together as a team to beat Nordonia, 26-14.
I unfortunately got injured early in the second quarter and was sidelined the rest of the game. I suffered a bone bruise on my knee and should be back shortly. I'm very thankful the injury was nothing serious.
This Thursday we will play against Normandy. We have been preparing very strong for this game just like the last one. We have the fire power all-around to be able to win this game so all we have to do is let it loose and we should be victorious by the end of the night Thursday.
