Remember Who You Are: A Short Story

A story of perseverance-both on the field and in life-from the mind of TAYLOR DYE. The boos, the jeers, and the chants rain down from all directions. "Boooo!" The clamor of stomping and banging against the seats. "Oh-ver-ray-did!" Clap, clap, clap-clap-clap. For Lezlee and her teammates, the shouts and taunts from the opposing team's ardent supporters are relentless-a constant, nagging reminder that Lezlee's team are visitors treading in enemy territory.
It is a fierce soccer rivalry, and the hometown crowd are not about to let Lezlee's team escape so easily, especially with the game hanging in the balance. Unfortunately for those watching from the stands, however, even the most fervent booing can slow a player of Lezlee's caliber for only so long-until Lezlee decides to remind her fellow players, the hostile crowd, and even herself, just how good she really is. Remember who you are.
