Soccer Chick Makes a Big Decision

See if you can guess by this photo:

That, my friends, is Rollins College women’s soccer team.  Today, Chicky verbally committed to play there in 2010, her Freshman year.

I know it seems strange for a junior (almost a senior) in high school to commit so early, but that’s the name of the game in soccer.  Coaches try to fill their rosters two years in advance.

Chicky called the coach this afternoon.  Signing day won’t be until sometime next Spring.

I am thrilled beyond belief and trusting God to provide the difference between the scholarship she’ll be receiving and the remaining balance of tuition and boarding fees. He has, after all, brought us this far in what has often seemed a very long journey…one that’s not over yet.

I’m looking forward to buying out the bookstore and adorning myself in Rollins apparel:

Happy Dance time!
