The girls’ soccer season is over and it ended with them coming out on top as champions. They worked hard for this chance and made the best of it.

The championship game started out with a goal in the 22’ minute by Lucy Wilson, assisted by Lillie Grace. Long Beach striked back with a goal in the 27’ minute. Lucy would not stop scoring and got another one in the 37’ minute, giving the Commodores the lead again at 2-1. Then, she did it again and scored, giving her a hat trick, in the 47’ minute. Katt Moss would strike in the 49’ minute making the lead 4-1. The game would end with a 5-1 score and they would be crowned champions.Their final record was 24-2 and 5-1 in the district.

Coach Scruggs won’t be slowing down and says they will be getting right back into it after a short break.

“The spring starts our next year so, hopefully we can start training and focus on what we need for the season starting next October,” Scruggs said.

Moss feels great being a champion and is still joyful that they are finally at that point. Hard work was a key aspect to becoming champions.

“Honestly it feels really good because you put all the hard work in there this whole entire season and we are finally here,” Moss said.

Teamwork was a huge part of this season and not being selfish is a big part of why this team was successful this season, according to Caitlyn Rhea.

“I feel like we all put our teammates above ourselves,” Rhea said. “We aren’t selfish at all.”

Rhea believes that if they keep putting the team above themselves then they can get back to being champions again next year.

“Probably just keep putting each other over ourselves. Like our we over me slogan that we had. If we keep with that then we should be fine.”

Moss was in awe and was worried about the big game before they played.

“It was kind of just like in awe basically. You have worked your whole entire season to get to that point and it’s your last game so you better give it your all. You don’t know when the next you play.”

The girls’ season may be over but that doesn’t stop them from enjoying their accomplishments. The girls hope to have another season like this next year as they push on through the offseason.unnamed
