Fall sports are coming to an end, but for many soccer play­ ers that only means the transi­ tion to the next athletic season. The tribal member players on the girls’ varsity team said many o f them are getting ready to play basketball this winter— and af­ ter that it will be time for track in the spring for the multi-tal­ ented athletes. Jacoba Smith, Ashley Evans, Tianna Herkshan and Briana Stacona all played on the girls’ varsity team this year. For Evans, soccer has been a long-term commitment. She has practiced the sport since the fifth grade. “My favorite part would have to be the adrenaline rush,” she said— especially the rush that comes after making a success­ ful kick, Evans added. Stacona and Evans are both juniors this year, and Stacona said soccer is a sport that helps to condition them for following athletic seasons. “It gets you ready for the next sport,” she explained. Smith finished her senior year on the girls’ varsity team and said it is her second year on the team. As for what she enjoys most about soccer,“I like the physi­ cal contact,” she said. All o f the girls agree that soc­ cer takes plenty o f skill and knowledge. “It’s not as boring as people share a moment with those who once gathered at that special place and to join with other Columbia River descendents. Those who wish to attend are welcome to bring songs, stories and photographs to share. Tee pees, poles and tents are needed for the encampement.
