Endings and Beginning

In 2012 when I was playing for junior Vikings, we were getting ready for our first playoff game. When we versed them before, we got killed 32-17. We were so mad after that game. But it motivated us to work harder. So after that game we changed our work ethic and went 7-2 the rest of our season. Once the playoffs rolled in we had longer and harder practices. When we found out that we were versing the Cardinals, we got fired up at practice and our intensity went up. At our final practice before we versed them, our coach gave us a speech. He talked about how proud he was of us and how we grew as team. On game day, we strapped up and went to their field. Once we got there, they already started taking trash to us, but it didn't faze us.We went through our normal pre- game warm ups and it was time to play. Every play of the game , the entire team gave it all they had. We kept the lead the entire game and ended up being victorious. It was so amazing and emotional. Their team was crying of sadness and our team was celebrating in victory. At the start of the season, we lost games and didn't communicate with each other. But at the end, we worked hard as a team through the ups and downs of the season but came through and defeated the Cardinals. It was a memorable season to me and it will always be remembered.
