I saw the injury to Sarah Jacobs on clean 1-on-1 ball during the Eastside game with about 10 minutes left, and watched as Sarah limped off the field. She didn't play against Blythewood in the next game, and from what I hear has meniscus or MCl damage.

Injuries are never good, but I personally respect Sarah Jacobs as much as any high school player I have ever watched. She is top ten in her class academically, top 1 in soccer, and is just one of the nicest young ladies you could ever watch play this wonderful game.

Sarah, from the opposing coach who told you I was voting for you for Player of the Year, hurt or not, I still am. Get well soon, young lady.

Can you imagine how good Riverside is if they can win 7-0 without their MVP? I get to watch it twice a year, and I guess Swansea is scheduling them soon so get ready Meredith..
