My number one fan

By Lauren Albano, Editor-in-Chief March 20, 2025
I made a few saves, and my dad came over to me, raving that he was proud of my first performance and reassuring that missed saves were not solely my fault — it was a team effort. I played goalie for a few more games and soon fell in love with the position.

You know, just in case somebody else does.  “Single Ladies” perhaps takes a bit too literal of an approach to the message here, but you get the idea: don’t take for granted what’s right in front of your face. And when it comes to relationships, sometimes the solution to that thing is a ring — a promise ring, to be exact.
