I mean, this has been
a really hard decision for me.
But getting here to this point
has been hard
on my entire family.
My mom and dad both
have made so many sacrifices.
Between games
and practices, camps.
I mean, everything.
And then my sister...
Reagan.
[]
You know, I realized that
sometimes the spotlight on me
maybe left a little bit
of a shadow on her.
She's been one of my
big inspirations this season.
You know,
her newfound dedication
and practicing every morning
for her soccer,
it made me work harder.
She doesn't know this,
'goal charts' in my room
just like she has in hers.
So thanks, sis.
Now, as for where I'm gonna
play football in college...
What, didn't believe me?
Thanks again. For today.
Come here.
Can I ask you something?
Shoot.
I got Diamond Cup starting this
weekend, and I'm really nervous.
Look, I still get
I feel like I'm gonna throw up.
No, you don't.
- You do?
- Yeah.
But you seem so calm.
Well then it's working.
What's working? Heh.
My secret.
Fake it 'til you make it.
That's it?
That's it.
So when do you
stop being nervous?
I'll let you know
when I make it.

We've got a second half to play.

because with time,
you have time,
and time is...

of not time. Which would be....
You know who won
Diamond Cup last year?
GIA:
Crush.
Yeah, Crush.
You know who the runner up was?
Hm?
If we lose today, nobody will
remember what we did.
We'll just go back to being
known as the girls who got cut.
And maybe that's who we are.
Or maybe not.
Because today is our chance to
force the Claire's of the world
and everybody else to call us
what we really are:
not Breakaways,
but champions.
Now, let's get out there
and show 'em!
ALL:
Yeah!
Anything to add?
No, that was great.
That...? Was that
an Alex Morgan speech?
No. It was a Reagan speech.

practice later?
