One of my first milestones is
when I made my first goal in the sport lacrosse. I started playing lacrosse when
I was about 10 years old. My lacrosse team was against Cave Spring and it was a
big game for my team. You could feel the intensity in all my teammates before
the game. We were down by about three goals and my coach tells me “Chapin
you’re going in.”He told me precisely what to do and I listened to every word.
As I do exactly what he tells me I end up getting set up for an amazing goal. No
one was near me for a mile when I was going in for the goal. I wasn’t the best
at the sport but by my third year of the sport I was extremely better than
before. I was so excited I couldn’t wait to tell my parents after the game. I
could feel the taste for more goals after I made my first. After that I only thrived to get better at
lacrosse. The following years I only became better at the sport.
I remember my mom telling me that
year I really should do lacrosse she said “Chapin you really should try it
you’ll love it and might like to stay with it.” I’m very glad she did because
it’s the one sport I truly love. After that I only became better and I strived to
become a the best player in the game of lacrosse you can only become so good
without putting the extra hours into working for it. For most people they think
lacrosse is just a pick up sport it doesn’t take much talent when really they
never have tried it.
Most people cannot comprehend how much talent
it takes to play the sport lacrosse it takes more than just the fundamental to
become the best you have to know the taste for it and the feeling in your gut
to know that you have what it takes to become the best there is out there you
have to have so much passion for the game that its incomparable to any other
sport I know of. One person I thrive to be as good as someday is Paul Rabil. He
is one of my models I go by in my opinion he is the best player mankind has
ever created. The only way I believe to have a milestone is to have a role
model. One thing he says is, “It takes more than the just the average work you
want to work above everyone else to become the best.
It takes true dedication to have true
compassion for a sport like lacrosse. Also for a milestone you have to know and
feel what it is like to complete or accomplish something that you have been
trying for month’s even years! You have to try in life if you don’t you won’t
accomplish anything. just working on a bit of homework could affect getting a
scholarship or putting the extra hours in for a sport could get you noticed
from a college coach.
Nice work!
