[1996]
Evelyn Hart stood on the sidelines of the soccer field, her eyes narrowing as she watched the Yellowjackets warm up. The rivalry between her team, the Ridgewood Ravens, and the Yellowjackets was notorious. Every match between them was intense, with neither side willing to give an inch. Today's match was particularly significant, with both teams vying for a spot in the nationals.
"Keep your eyes on the ball and stay sharp," Evelyn shouted to her teammates, her voice carrying over the din of the stadium. She glanced at the Yellowjackets' captain, Jackie, who was rallying her own team with equal fervor.
The whistle blew, and the game began. Evelyn, as the Ravens' star forward, was everywhere at once, her movements fluid and precise. Every movement was calculated, and every touch was deliberate. The game unfolded in a whirlwind of tackles, passes, and shots on goal.
Halfway through the first half, Evelyn found herself face-to-face with Shauna. The ball was at Evelyn's feet, and she danced around, searching for an opening. Shauna, the Yellowjackets' midfielder, just matched Evelyn's every move that mirrored her own.
Evelyn made a swift feint to the left, trying to catch Shauna off guard, but Shauna anticipated her maneuver perfectly. With fast reflexes, Shauna lunged forward, intercepting the ball cleanly.
Shauna smirked, her eyes locking on Evelyn with a challenging glint. "You'll have to do better than that."
Evelyn glared at Shauna angrily. Her anger quickly turned into frustration, however, when the other girl's smirk only grew wider, as if she'd heard her thoughts. It frustrated her that someone would dare look down upon her in such a way. "You won't be so cocky when we beat you."
Evelyn shook her head angrily, deciding to focus on something else. There were more pressing matters at hand: keeping score, getting points, defending their goals, and winning this match against the Yellowjackets. That was all that mattered at the moment; nothing else. She wasn't about to let some wannabes get in her way.
With that thought firmly in mind, Evelyn picked up the pace, and focused again on the game. She was determined not to let this setback affect her performance. As always. She could feel the energy flowing through her body, fueling her every action. The adrenaline rush was what she needed to succeed.
