They Won !

Wow, what a game in beautiful Enumclaw! If you are a soccer purist, this was a game for you. A lot of crisp passing, defense, and of course, Seattle weather fit for November. This was a tournament game and our opponent was an undefeated team. But our girls played hard in the blowing wind and pouring rain. The game went into overtime at 1-1. Then the prettiest center pass to a charging forward put us ahead for the rest of the game. Lauren played most of the game as a midfielder and was unbelievable against the more aggressive opponents. She matched their intensity while claiming ownership to her territory of the field. The parents, including Leah, were losing their voices from rooting their team to an unexpected victory. Congratulations, girls! We will be back next Sunday in this tournament!
