    Since the La Forza girls did not have a scheduled game 
this weekend, their coach set up a "competitive friendly" between the two La 
Forza teams: Samantha and her White Ice teammates versus the Blue Fire team. The 
game didn't start out well for the Ice team, as they gave up 5 goals by the Fire 
in the first half. The Ice team managed to score just before halftime, and that 
seemed to give them some momentum going into the second half. The Ice came out 
on fire in the second half, no pun intended. They scored several quick goals 
before they finally gave up another. I didn't keep close tabs on the score, but 
the Fire team topped the Ice in a close battle. Sam didn't have her best game, 
as she didn't play aggressive soccer throughout. She also forgot her white 
jersey today, so she was forced to borrow one from a girl on the other team. 
Instead of her usual #29 shirt, she was wearing #16 today. Enjoy the pictures!

			Being a competitive friendly, there was no official referee or 
			linesman today. While Tyler was off running an errand for me to the 
			van, I volunteered him for a job. He wasn't too happy with me...
