Bishop Kelly girls soccer team off to great start

By Torri Kerkman

Bishop Kelly girls soccer started off their season strong, and still going strong with an undefeated season. "It's great! We're hoping to be back to back state champs! And so far things are looking great!" said BK Senior Anne Marie Tortorica. The Varsity girls started off with their first game against Kuna, and were a little nervous but for apparently no reason after coming away with a 3-0 win. Next came Middleton with a 4-0 win, and then Emmett with another 3-0.
The junior varsity team is following suit with an undefeated season as well. They've fought hard and played hard without a single point being scored on them either. The JV team is composed of many freshmen who have said that being on the team as freshmen they had expected to be pushed to play harder, and work harder. They still are, but comment that the upper classmen and coaches have been very cohesive and positive.
This could be said for their success. If you ever see the girls on soccer, you can't help but smile at their enthusiasm, friendliness and comradeship with each other, and they're matching braids. "I definitely feel like that's one of the reasons my girls have been so successful," commented the Girls Soccer Coach, "no matter how hard and intense things might get during practice or at our games, the girls are always encouraging each other and working hard!"
The team understands that to get cocky is to plot your own demise, but the girls can't help but feel confident. "Because we're a 4A school," explained BK freshmen Savannah Buckley who plays on the JV team, "We have fewer schools to play, and we've already beaten them!" With that said, this week's homecoming game against Middleton is on Wednesday! So stay positive ladies! We can't wait to see that 2009 banner for our State Champs!
