Gold Game Results: Thursday, Nov. 14. Chargers 1: Keswick 5
Pressure. Diligence. Focus. These are the best words to describe the opening night of the Shorecrest MD Girls Gold Soccer fall season at Keswick Christian.
Putting its emphasis on defense at the start of the game, the Chargers primary defenders -- Alex H., Jacqui B., Nikki L. and Camille P-F. -- limited a hard-charging opponent to six shots on goal in the first half and half as many in the second.
When the Shorecrest offense attacked in the second half, Anna M. took the team's first shot on goal of the evening and assisted Lindsey L. on the team's first point of the season. The offense, including Marielle S., Reilly K., Kyra B. and Anna P., plus midfielders Aliyah S., Julia G., and the absolutely sparkling Haley T. and Karli M., gave the visiting team and a large contingent of friends and family much to cheer about in the second half.
This game marked the Shorecrest debut of two new keepers with a great deal of promise, Keaton P. and Elizabeth S.
Final score, Keswick 5, Chargers 1.
Next game is Tuesday, November 19 @ 4 p.m. HOME vs. Tampa Prep on the PE/Intramural Field.

On legs she can't feel, Eckerd soccer player looks for new goal (Tampa Bay Times)

ST. PETERSBURG — The first time she learned to walk, she kicked grapefruits across the kitchen floor, so there was never a time that Erin Davis didn't play soccer. She played with the neighborhood kids and she played with the boys, the ones four years her senior, and by the time Erin was 13, colleges were filling her mailbox, wondering if she'd come play with them too.
Soon she'd join the most elite pool of players in the country, on the United States youth national team. She'd play on five teams at once, and train at the Bradenton athletic academy that gave Eli Manning to football and Ian Desmond to baseball. The Olympics committee would send letters to her high school. Erin can't come to school today because ...
Suddenly there was pain. Pain in her legs when she ran and kicked the ball, pain in her head from the bad things that had happened, the things she told herself weren't real.
To live a life without the pain, Erin Davis had surgery to kill the nerve in her left leg; nerve damage took care of the right. Today, 26 and still playing, she can't feel anything beneath her knees: not the ankles she covers with shin guards, not the cleats she laces up over her feet. She can't feel the ground she is running on. She can't feel the ball she is kicking past goalies.
She returned to the field for the first time in six years this fall as a mid-fielder for Eckerd College's Division II team.
Soccer could help Davis find closure from the only dream she's ever had. But it's hard to find a new dream, when you don't let go of the old one.
