What Does Being a Senior Mean to You To me, being a senior means Responsibility. Responsible in the way that I have a strong impact on how the team will do. The reason why a senior is responsible for that is because often times people look back on a team and say, "who were the seniors that year? They did so and so on leading that team that year." I want to be responsible for what hopefully will be a good image and thought of how this season went. Responsible also in the sense that I have a large impact on the leaders of the immediate teams following. The younger players notice everything I do; similar to how we notice how our bosses do or don't do something. I am constantly reminding myself that someone is always looking up to me and what I am doing will have a great impact on their future for the team and for when they are a leader some day. On a personal level, I am responsible for how I do individually. We always talk about "the team" and "we." Though that is the case, the truth is that there can't be a team without strong, centered, I's. I, myself, am responsible to ensure that I am strong enough so that I can bring that to the team to allow it to be as strong as possible. I am responsible for bringing it on a night in and night out basis. Through responsibility in making sure that I leave an impact individually, as a leader, and how the team does this year, are all three large components that will hopefully shape up for a great run as my last year as a V-Hawk!
