TRYOUTS

2 It didn’t take long for the differences between Berk and
Ryan to become clear during tryouts.

3 As they worked on various drills, Berk was clearly better at
many of the technical parts of the game.

4 He made good decisions on when to come out of the goal
to challenge a shooter or to pick up a loose ball. He always
seemed to be in the right place at the right time.

5 When shots were taken on him, Berk made solid saves and
controlled the rebounds.

6 Ryan was a little wilder in the goal. He took unnecessary
chances, coming out of the net to challenge a player when it
would have been smarter to stay back. He often found

himself out of place.

happen.
