against contend half league match teams top
I think we should be in the upper half and contend with the top teams. I think we match up a lot better against teams in the league this year.
above against fired game gave goal kept played points score second state team
In the first game against Holton, we played with them, but we didn't play as well as we could have. In the second game, we were down by 10, and I gave them the goal to score 20 points before Holton scored 25 and we got to 23-21. It kept us fired up, because it showed us what we could do when we played the No. 1 team in the state in the classification above us.

We knew and Brooke knew that the divisional is not as important as next week. We just wanted her to make it through three miles and after that fold it up and focus on state. The last thing Brooke wanted to do was maximize the pain in this race with state coming up.
