I have known Coach Mac since i was in first grade. He was the one that got me started in soccer. He got me started in the wonderful program, Carolina Girls (now CUSC). Throughout my elementary school years all I thought about was eventually playing for him on the highschool soccer team (at that time, Middleton). He was an inspiration to me and was the reason I kept playing all these years. Now that I have been given this chance to play on this wonderful team I can see why I have wanted it so bad since I was probably right above his knees in height.
Mac, I can't thank you enough for all that you have taught me. But, luckily for me my highschool soccer journey is not coming to an end quite yet. The emotion that you put into our team is incredible, and sometimes brings me to tears. I can see it in the seniors eyes how much you mean to them, you mean so much to all of us Mac. You have taught me that this game (like stated above) is 99% mental, and I believe we proved that in the Championship game. Mac you taught us never to give up on each other, and to believe in each other, and that is what drove this team to our victory. We had the mental and physical ability to come back and beat that team.
I am looking forward to sharing many more experiences with you these next two years. You mean so much to me Mac, and I will never forget you.
Love,
Your Rookie (or is that "Graduated Rookie" now?)
