A Great Day for Soccer

Saturday was a great day for soccer. The temperature was just right and the sun was shining. The wind was a bit much but luckily Monica's strong punts overcame the resistance.

We took on the Smash again at Rosemary Hills. We scored early with kicks from Kathy with a great return on her deflected corner kick and Jenn's first ever goal. Smash had some really good shots on our goal but only managed to sink 1. We won 2-1 and are in second place behind the Killer Tomatoes. This is definitely a trend.

One Smash player asked if we had been practicing over the summer. i explained our push of Saturday scrimmages, summer league and indoor. She said...It really shows in your play. You guys are talking to each other which is great. So big cheer for all the folks who came out over the summer.

We did not fare so well in indoor and fell 12-2 in our last game of the regular indoor season. I have never felt that ineffective on defense in my life. Next Sunday is our playoff game which ends the season.

So looking forward to next Saturday at Turkey Thicket against the Killer Tomatoes.
