Sophomore Gwyneth Taylor decided to try out for Sunlake’s first ever flag football team. At first, Gwen had been nervous to tryout for the team, but she ended up having so much fun. She chose to tryout for the team because she wanted to try something new. Gwen explained, “I have played soccer my whole life and wanted to test my athleticism in a different way.” To prepare for tryouts, she decided to eat clean, consistently run, go to the gym, stay active, and throw and catch a football with her dad. Her favorite part about tryouts was the races, because she felt that it was similar to what she does in soccer, making her feel prepared. On the other hand, Gwyn shares, “My least favorite tryouts was how nervous I felt,” however, the fun she had made her forget all about it. Gwen is so excited for the rest of the season, having faith that the team will succeed this year in all of their games to come. She can absolutely not wait to see what the season has in store!
