Thoughts on being a captain...

By: Jessica W.

This past week I have really enjoyed being co-captain with Megan Kyte. It is like being the assistant coach and helping the team at practices and at games. As, captain, you have more responsibilities. Some include leading in drills and stretches, making sure everyone is attentive to both coaches, and reflecting on the games and how we played.While being captain your teammates look up to you for leadership and help when it is needed. Being new on the team and having the role of being captain was a great way for me to get to know my teammates better! This week being captain was an honor. I knew I had to play my hardest and be a good role model for my teammates to look up too. This past weekend being captain was a great experience for me and a lot of fun!
