Game 7
 

Home Up


 

    Samantha's soccer team had a chance for revenge in their 7th game of the season on Monday, December 13th. In what was their only rematch of the season, the Puma's (Sam's team) played against the Waza 01 team that defeated them 2-1 in the first game of the season. The girls played very strong today and jumped out to a 1-0 lead early on. The score was tied at halftime 1-1, and the girls scored early in the second half to take a 2-1 lead. Sam was playing goal in second half, primarily because she was the only on who would volunteer to do so. Unfortunately, with less than two minutes remaining in the game, she let a kick sneak by her to tie the game once again, this time at 2-2. She made plenty of other good saves, and the girls played good defense in front of her, but on this goal they let a girl sneak in all alone and she was able to kick in off of Sam's hands and into the net. I'm sure plenty of the other parents are upset at Sam for not making the goal, but I am extremely proud of her for volunteering to play goalie in a pressure packed game situation and for doing her best when called upon. Love you Sammie!

Sammie didn't see much action. Most of her time was spent contemplating deep thoughts.
