Inside the Six: Make Wednesdays RSL Again

Related Topics: Matt Van Oekel

In high school I had an open look at an empty net from inside the six yard box. And I shanked it over the crossbar. The next day at practice my coach had me stand in the same spot in the six, and played ball after ball in, asking me to try to hit it over the crossbar. I could not. The laws of physics wouldn’t allow it.

I maybe missed a shot that was impossible to miss.

Every Wednesday I’ll be here at Inside the Six, dishing takes and taking shots, hoping some will find the back of the net.
