Goal Essay
Justin Johnson GOALLL!!!!! Your first thought is likely soccer, however even with the success I have had in soccer, Back to Back District Champs, my true love for sports is Lacrosse. I want to hear my name announced during a Division I Lacrosse game. I don’t want to sit there, do school work and go to parties in college, I want to do something I love. Lacrosse is the thing I love. In college I want to push myself to stay in shape and have people look up to me. To say I played lacrosse in college is something I have always wanted to say.
I am a dedicated athlete. Each sport I play I always give 100%. When I earn my spot on the team there will be no question why I am there. My hard work and perseverance will speak for itself. My motivation was people telling me I would never be good enough to play lacrosse in college. I want to prove to them that they could not have been more wrong. I want to challenge myself to make them say “I knew that guy” whenever they hear my name or see me. …show more content…

    LACROSSE I will inform my audience about the offense, defense, and gear needed for the sport of lacrosse. What are the different types of plays and formations when the ball is on the offensive side? Lacrosse is a sport with a complex-looking outside, but a relatively simple inside. The offense of the sport is a great example of this. According to Lax Life, a Canadian lacrosse education website, “The ‘motion offense’ is a system that relies on getting the ball low (to the ‘crease position’) and then sending a series of cutters in a particular order (timing), with the ball carrier carrying the ball high and shooting, if no options present themselves.”
