How I Became Savannah Solo Part 4

Wednesday January 6th

Alex and I woke up at 6 and changed before heading to breakfast. While we ate I checked my email. I had one from UNC and one from Stanford.

To Savannah Solo,
We have talked to our board of admissions and we want to offer you a full ride to UNC. This includes soccer and cheer if you choose. I would like to talk preferably in person or over the phone about the requirements. Please let me know when you can. – Anson Dorrance

To Savannah Solo,
Our boards of admission have informed us that we can now offer you a full ride to Stanford for cheer and soccer if you choose to do both. We would love for you to come visit our campus. Get with us and we would love to set a date for you to come. – Paul Ratcliff

Me: well I have fill rides to both UNC and Stanford
Hope: Shocker
Ash: Tar Heels
Kelley: No Cardinals
Toby: Tar Heels
Me: oh my lord stop, I haven't decided yet but you all will be the first to know
Hope: Of course after me.
Me: Maybe
Ali: careful there Baby Horse, but come on guys lets head to the gym

We all got up and went to the gym. We split into our groups and did sets and then ab work. To finish we worked with the ropes for a couple sets. Dawn gave us our drinks and we went to lunch. While I ate I copied the social studies notes that Brad sent me. We then went out to the field for training.

We put on our cleats and did warmups. The practice was pretty tough and we had a lot of drills with different limitations that made you think about what you were doing. We finished our cool downs and went to dinner. I did my worksheet for U.S. History while I ate.

Hope: What are you working on now Baby Horse?
Me: U.S. History
Alex: ew.
Me: yeah but after I finish this sheet I only have two tests to take online and then I'm done with the subject.
Ali: what do you have left after that?
Me: Pre-cal, English, Biology, and a test for German
Ash: I am so glad I am out of school.
Me: don't rub it in; I am literally the only one in school. Not even college for that matter
Toby: yeah but if we took a test you would look like you are the smartest on the team
Hope: yeah like that's true.
Me: Rude

We cleaned up our table and went to the field. We took the bench and put our cleats on. We did warmups and then Jill called us over.

Jill: alright we are going to play 8v8 full field. We are going to sub in and out so get as much as you can. Blue team is, Harris, Krieger, Egen, Johnston, Heath, Press, O'Hara, and Solo
Yellow team is, Solo, Dunn, Broon, Kling, A-rod, Moe, O'Reilly, and Alex. Now let's get moving.

Hope: Baby Horse what are you doing with my gloves
Me: you heard her I'm in goal for yellow.
Hope: funny now give me my gloves and get your ass in a blue penny.
Me: rude

Hope laughed and took her gloves. I put on the blue and took my spot. Playing 8v8 on a full field was exhausting. My team was up 4-3. Alex, Kelley, Hope and I were the only ones that weren't subbed at all when Jill called time. Alex, Kelley, and I went to the bench and laid on the ground and Hope came up to us.

Hope: are the 5 year olds tired?
Me: yes
Kelley: yes
Alex: definitely
Hope: come on I'll help you up.

Hope helped us up and we took our cleats off. We went to the lobby so Dawn could talk to us.

Dawn: good job girls. Get your recovery drinks and water as you pass me. There are snacks in the meal room. It's not mandatory except for Baby Horse. Have a good night see you tomorrow.

I got my drinks and Kelley and I went to the meal room. We made Pb&j sandwiches and then went to our rooms. I showered after Alex and went to bed.
