Belén was first introduced to quinoa after a lacrosse game. The lacrosse parents had set up a tailgate with a great variety of food and a quinoa salad was a part of it. Quinoa is a seed from a weed- like plant, goosefoot, and although it is not a true grain, quinoa shares similar nutritional properties. It is generally cooked and served like most cereal grains (Moncel, 2015). When Belén was doing some research on the type of food that would be good for a lacrosse athlete to eat before or after a game, she also came across quinoa. Quinoa is a very popular food among vegetarians and health enthusiasts because of its high protein content. In addition to being higher in protein than most grains, quinoa is also a complete protein source, which is not common in plant products (Moncel, 2015). These facts led us to think that this food would be beneficial for any athlete along with anyone who was just interested in their overall health. After Zavious and Belén decided to prepare a quinoa salad, the search was on to find an easy recipe. We found a salad called “Quinoa Tabbouleh” and decided to make it. The recipe called for diced cucumbers, chopped parsley, green onions, grated carrots, tomatoes, lemon juice, sea salt, olive oil, and quinoa. To cook the quinoa it only requires bringing two cups of water to a boil. There was a small change in the recipe; instead of carrots, we decided to put in avocados. Belén is allergic to carrots and she preferred avocados. This replacement is
On what I have read about Tennyson I am not surprised by his reaction towards Brewsters help during his lacrosse games. The reason why I am not surprised by his reaction is because Tennyson loves to winn and is very competitive, so when he had Brewsters help he got upset because he thought that he was getting better as a player. Also Tennyson feels like he cheated in the lacrosse game. When he saw Brewster on his side in pain and that he was there at the game Tennyson got mad and felt super bad because he knew that Brewster was feeling his pain instead of hin feeling it. I think that Tennyson wants to feel his own pain, because he will know when the pain is too much and he can stop playing, but when Brewster is taking his pain he doesn't know
The nature of Lacrosse in the novel is exhibited as a violent, physical, and destructive sport. In the novel, the game “takes place in Wendaki” between the Huron and the Iroquois for Huron Confederacy (King). The game consists of two teams of five and is located in the forest. The surface and the environment of which Lacrosse is played is full with trees, tall grass, and rocks. Lacrosse is played with a netted stick and a “hide-wrapped sacred stone”(The Creator's 175 ) The purpose of the game is to obtain the stone and use it to touch the opponent’s post. There are no players who are directly protecting the tall post, but there are many defensive players that are separated far from the post. The game has no time limit as it ends when the stone
This article is mainly about the Florida helmet ruling. It has in-depth information on the effects of the ruling. It is a helpful article because it focuses specifically on an instance where girls do have to wear helmets. One helpful quote from the article is, “US Lacrosse appreciates the FHSAA Board of Directors’ concern about athlete safety, but we don’t understand why they chose to disregard the information provided to them by the sport’s national governing body.” This shows that even the sport’s national governing body doesn’t see the need for helmets, so it clearly is unnecessary. The US Lacrosse Vice-President of Games

Secondly, the field lacrosse is played on has been drastically changed since the sport began. The original documented game of lacrosse was played on enormous field with no strict boundaries. The goals often stretched miles apart and they were just a space between two trees that one tried to throw the ball through to score .

Lacrosse is a team sport that originated with Native Americans who lived in the northeastern areas of the US and in Canada. The first documentation of the game came from a Jesuit Missionary in the mid-1600s making it the oldest game in North America. It is believed to have developed around 1100 AD. Competitions were major events that could go on for days and involve 100 to 1,000 men. The rules were agreed upon the day before the competition was scheduled to begin.
Sweatpants have become common attire for lacrosse goalies, with some claiming that they even improve performance.
Lacrosse was started by Native Americans in the seventeenth century and is still around being played today. William George Beers was the one who changed the rules from the Indian rules to the ones that today’s game is based off of. Why did he change the rules so much and did it help today’s game?

In the beginning of the season, the Sherwood High School girl’s lacrosse team had enough to field two teams, a JV and a Varsity, but by the end of the season, there was only enough to field one team. At one point in the season the team had 8 out of 26 girls out with concussions Team statistics such as this, have the lacrosse community in an uproar over whether or not to mandate helmets for all levels of women’s lacrosse teams. The debate has arisen out of an increase in concussions and the recent research which has provided more insight to the science of the brain and its injuries. Those in favor of a new headgear mandate suggest that it will prevent concussions and be safer for the players, but
Growing up in a small farm town in Wisconsin, few people would thing that a future NCAA lacrosse player would be on the come up. This athlete would have some of the best coaches and the worst coaches in that the game had to offer and would drip all of the knowledge they had.

This athlete is me and I come from Waunakee, Wisconsin which is a small football farm town that dose not have many NCAA athletes come from it and even fewer lacrosse players that play the sport in the area. Like as was stated before I have had amazing coaches who pushed me to better and other
Lacrosse may be the single most impactful force in my life. I have come to define myself through my involvement with the sport. I do not consider myself a natural athlete; I have had to work very hard to earn every achievement in lacrosse. For the past six years, I have continued to set my aspirations higher and increase my effort to achieve my goals. I have applied what I have learned from lacrosse to many other aspects of my life: I am now an A level student at one of the most academically rigorous high schools in the country, I am an active participant and in my school’s rock band, acapella group, and jazz band, and I am a committed member of my school’s wrestling team.

Rinse one cup of quinoa in water until it runs clear. Boil two cups of low-sodium chicken broth and gently stir in the rinsed quinoa. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cover the pan with a lid. Cook the quinoa for 20 minutes and then fluff with a fork. Finely mince 1/2 a white onion. In a separate pan, saute the minced onion in olive oil until it is translucent and beginning to turn brown. Remove it from the pan and combine it with the cooked quinoa. Squeeze 1/2 a lemon over the quinoa mixture and garnish with fresh parsley that has been chopped finely.
