The Pride is...

These cats scratch

... on the prowl. Yes, Steds B Team soccer team, Big Cats, has taken to the soccer pitch, looking for w's. While Steds A Team plays in a whole different league, literally and figuratively, Big Cats play with a different skill and a certain finesse that places them in a realm of their own. While the season started with a disappointing loss, the Pride rallied for their second game, holding nothing back. It was a close game, being scoreless throughout the first half as well as much of the second too, until there was a breakthrough. A new cat, freshman Curtis Donovan, stepped up and took a swipe at the ball, drawing a goal and cheers of his fellow Big Cats. Eventually, that one goal secured the win as well as the spirits of the Pride. On scoring the winning goal, Donovan shared, “A firm belief I have always held is that winners win. Being a big cat is the definition of being a winner, so our win was inevitable. I might’ve been the one to put the goal away, but it was the pride as a whole that earned our glorious victory through playing the beautiful game the right way.”
