Soccer teams open with DI Eagle River

[mouakter14]

I too remember. My freshman points in the back of those Wrangell programs topped eight just once. After Friday night games I tried to hide as long as possible Saturday morning where I and another teammate were housed as the second games were seldom any reprieve. They were giants of the game. Senior laden and battle-tested. In biblical times I might have stood a chance with sling and rock… but Davids who love the game don’t always defeat bigger Goliaths who possess that same virtue sanctified from more years of hallowed court grounds. They were men of integrity and stature who earned respect.

Months earlier, in my final eighth-grade summer, my father drove me out to the end of the road when he and mother went beachcombing, and then later in early August I hitched a ride out to the “100 Feet to end of road” sign with future high school teammates as they ended their summers with a gathering.

Both times I walked along the rocks, looking across the country wise email marketing list water to the community that housed Fred Angerman Jr… listening… straining to hear… willing my ears to the sound of that chain-link hoop taking swish after swish from the senior Wolves guard I feared, respected and longed to meet.The Juneau-Douglas High School: Yadaa.at Kalé Crimson Bears girls and boys soccer teams will kick off a new season from their Adair-Kennedy Field center mark on Friday and Saturday against the Cook Inlet Conference’s Eagle River Wolves, an opponent the likes of which JDHS will see more of as consolidation has placed them back into Division I soccer.

“I like the fact that 59 kids are playing girls soccer. This is just awesome,” JDHS girls’ head coach Matt Dusenberry said. “Managing 59 kids is a new challenge, but I think so far their attitudes have been fantastic…We coaches may make a mistake or two in trying to get it right and fun for them when it comes to practices, games and things like that. They’ve been great and rolling with it so far, working hard, can’t complain. We didn’t have to help remove any snow this year off the field so that has been awesome as well.”

The JDHS girls play at 5:15 p.m. Friday and the boys at 7 p.m. The girls play at 1:15 p.m. Saturday and the boys at 3 p.m.
