Girls’ Soccer
A
s four-year players on Exeter soccer, this team has been central to our high school experience. From even before the start of prep year, Exeter soccer has meant having a community of girls to look up to, to play for, and with whom to share moments of triumph. Growing up on this team has affected us as teammates and as people. On the field, we learned how to communicate with each other and be accountable for our mistakes; off the field, we learned to apply these skills to be better classmates and leaders. For the past four years, Exeter-Andover has been an amazing opportunity to represent our school. As the last game of the season, it means more than just the culmination of our work: it is a chance to step up in front of our peers, to compete, and to demonstrate the commitment we have put toward the team. For some of us, this season is our last. Going into E/A provides us with a chance to reflect on the experience we have had playing as part of the soccer team. For four years, this has meant our enthusiasm for team buddies, our Secret Santa–style psych, our biweekly team dinners, and countless nights spent burning s’mores. More than just ending our season with a win, we are going into this game with the goal of leaving the team with a legacy to carry on. For our underclassmen especially, who will, in only a few years, be in our position, we hope to provide a mentality for them to carry to their future teammates. Lastly, we would like to thank our devoted fans and parents, who braved our freezing games even before we had stands. GO BIG RED! —Daniela Nemirovsky ’17

P
hillips Academy girls’ soccer— GVS—is a unique and special program that we have seen grow and improve during our four years with the team. We embrace our team’s motto, “whatever it takes,” and bring that mindset to every single drill, game, and practice. Coach Joel has ingrained this selfless mentality into our heads from the moment we joined the GVS family, and our commitment to the motto has shown tremendously on the field. Our 2015 results are certainly attributed to the sacrifice and hard work of every player on the team. From the starters to the injured players, everyone is valued and respected equally. Our team chemistry and intrinsic, gritty competitiveness was amazing. Although many talented players have since graduated, our spirit and our support for each other does not waver. The Andover-Exeter matchup never disappoints. Our record for the season is put aside for this game: one of the most challenging, nail-biting NEPSAC competitions. Last year’s matchup with Exeter ended in a 2–2 tie. Although we went up early in the game and scored two goals in the first half, Exeter rose to the challenge and battled back to tie the game. This year, we hope to use last year’s frustrating tie to motivate us to really battle and challenge a growing, experienced Exeter team. We haven’t exactly had the start we would have liked this season, but we are using our losses to drive our motivation in practice and going forward to the next game. We focus on one game at a time, playing the best soccer we can. Our ability to overcome challenges is what we believe will lead us to a successful season. —Antonia Tammaro ’17 & Cassie Chin ’17
