Flag football, 8-1, are looking to beat the Westchester Comets, 5-2, today.
Senior Samantha Moreno, a co-captain with Senior Khalia Rodriguez, is eager for the game against Westchester.
“They’re the next best competition in the league,” she said. “I’m excited for that game.”
Rodriguez is still looking for improvement from the team.
“I do think we need to work on not going into the game automatically thinking we’re gonna win.”
Despite the room for growth, the Gondos ultimately succeeded in their hard-won game against Fairfax last Thursday.
The team wore down the Lions by running the ball. The Gondos also found success in staying poised under pressure.
“I think we did good staying calm and confident,” Rodriguez said.
Even with the wins, Rodriguez is committed to making sure the team stays focused and doesn’t get too overconfident.
“We need to be humble and just show up with our best effort.”
