Soccer Scholarship

I just went and scavenged through my closet and my bedroom to find something that had a big meaning to me. I passed through many things that i have been debating talking about. I passed through things such as my soccer ball, old soccer cleats, soccer pictures, soccer medals and trophies. They all caught my eye, and they all have to deal with soccer. Which is by far one of my favorite things ever! I finally decided what my topic was going to be about. It isn't any of those things i just mentioned though. It is my scholarship for soccer from William Penn University. Now don't get me wrong, Idaho State is great! I was just so excited to get what i had dreamt of my entire life. I started soccer at the age of five, and have been playing it non-stop ever since. In my soccer career throughout my life I was always having fun. Soccer is something I always wanted to pursue. As I got older I realized I could have a lot coming for me in soccer. I would strive harder and harder each practice and game to get better so I could get a scholarship. As time went on I got a phone call from the William Penn ladies soccer coach. Coach Ganson was his name, he asked me some questions and told me some information. Next thing you know he was knocking on my front door! Well I got the scholarship, but there was just a factor with family and moving far away that I couldn't handle. Unfortunately I gave my childhood dream away. My mom just has to keep all the papers and information to remind me of it too! Just knowing that I had the perfect chance to continue doing what I loved best makes me very proud of myself. Even though I gave it up, I am glad to be here with my family!
