"As a goalkeeper I always felt like an outcast on the team and I had the weight of the team on my back. I would be so nervous going into games that I would have trouble eating anything if I had games that day. If I had a good game then everything was fine, I did my job. But as a goalkeeper when you mess up more times than not it ends up as a goal and all eyes are on you. This weighs on you and would stay with me long after the game was over. Looking back this helped me build character, learn how to get past hardships and work toward personal goals, I wouldn't want to change my position for anything."
