this year there were a couple of other play ers that could have gotten there too she felt playing the game since she was 9 vitales appearance at humber college was in part due to the influence of

college vitale was quick to point out that play ing the striker posi tion was something she did not envision for the hawks the move turned out to be a blessing normally i play midfield but they needed a striker and i hadnt played that position in about three or four years for me to get 15 goals was kind of surpris ing she said despite not bringing home a medal from the recent national champi onships the pair tried to accentuate the positive in what was a memorable sea son sure it was disappointing vitale said of their finish at the championships but just making it there was good itwas a
