Results from tryouts

Well I thought instead of leaving you all with sleepless nights over me, I would let you know how tryouts went. I played really well and I'm happy about my performance, but I didn't make first cuts. As for a little more constructive feedback, I happened to be put on the same team as a senior who is in my ward that has started for Viewmont since he was a freshman! This was great because he is (although over-confident [ I would try to spell caucky, but I would get it wrong]) anyway, he is really good and knows me and helped to set me up. Then we separated into sophmore-freshmen, and junior-senior teams and I ripped it up. I scored 4 goals and 1 assist. I think the biggest reason that I didn't make cuts was because I didn't go to conditioning which was Jan-Feb. I couldn't make these because of my band deal that I think you have all heard about. Anyway, write lots of supportive comments so I don't lose sleep tonight crying in my pillow. (As you may have had I not written this :-)

Oh and for Thomas: The reason that it stinks to tryout indoors was because it is hard because #1 players to play their best indoors, because soccer is and outdoor sport and #2 the coaches cannot make a fair judgement as to how the players would play outdoors.

I am sorry to hear that you didn't make the team. They will be sorry that they cut you!! It seems silly that they would cut a really great player just because he didn't go to some conditioning thing. One day they will regret not having Joshua John Crowley on the team. Maybe next year huh? What's next? What other sports are being played right now? We still love you and know that you are a stud soccer player!!! Keep your chin up.

I am a little confused. Are we talking that you did not make Varsity, but are still in it for JV? With having scored 4 goals, I would have thought they would put you on JV just because. I am soooo confused.
