  3. Project: To inform readers about the incident with Elizabeth Lambert; a New Mexico Soccer player who roughed up a player on the opposing team.

    Keywords: Elizabeth Lambert, aggressive plays, YouTube, ESPN, physical sport

    Strengths: I think your paper is structured well and it seems like you have put yourself in it; personal views which I like to read. Also, I think you did a good job laying the information out in a step by step, following process.

    Weaknesses: Honestly, I don't see any significant weaknesses. I think it's laid out well and it's easy for people to understand.

    Additional Comments: I really liked your comment at the end of your paper: "Don’t scrutinize her actions until you run a mile in her soccer cleats." Also, I liked that you took a stance for her by expressing how on-contact soccer can really be. Your personal experience helped out with that.
