Pumped is right!

 

After not playing for 5 weeks it was great playing again. Awesome game last night a bit dusty though. Offense and defense played very well, we were challenged because the center of the field was hard as a rock. The ball kept bouncing all over the place but we won 2-0. Great to see everyone. Nice picture of our team 2012 Winter Season; from right to left- Diane, Cara, Rachel, Arlene, Jenna, Liz, Kris, Sharie, Belinda; Suzanne & our goalie Ashley, were there but had to leave. Hootie whoo!!!

Tsunami vs. the Fury-ious

Well another loss 4-0, we had a very good 1st half holding them to only 1 goal. Second half was a bit disappointing & frustrating; Rachel tweak her ankle, Steph got mangled in her corner, Stacie's feet/calves were cramping and Cara hurt her neck, Laura fell on her knee and re-injured it. All in all we hung in there and played good defense. Ashley made several great saves thank goodness, she had one awesome leap in the air and literally crushed a scoring goal. Hootie whoo!

Game Recap Week 3-Winter 2012

Here's a recap-before our game one of the players from the Blackhearts came over and told us to be careful with the Shooters. She said they played very dirty a couple of their players got hurt. The ref's were calling all the fouls on the Blackhearts. Just before we started, something was said to the ref's because they were much more vociferous than usual.
We played an upper division team the "Shooters" and boy did they! All in all we played well, disappointing with only having "10" players out of 20. Everyone worked hard at defending, Cara and Jenna helped a great deal with all that body contact going on and being tall intimidated some of the Shooters players. We did awesome the first half they only scored 1 goal, Ashley did an awesome job yelling helping the back line defend and Cara cutting off the runner before she crossed the ball. In the second half they scored 2 more goals but not without a fight. We were going downhill it was very cold and windy. Rachel almost had a goal...dang it, next time Rach.

For those of you who weren't at the game I'd like to introduce you to Ashley Garibay she is our new goalie. Also wanted to mention how great Patti has been as our goalie and we know we can count on Cara & Lindsey too to fill in. Thank you thank you!!!!

Steph commented:

We actually started the game w 9 players! They scored their first pretty quickly in the first half (it was a beauty shot). Then our 10th player showed, so it was our 10 against their full team + 3 subs, I believe, which they were switching out often! Ashley: You did great in the goal!

I stand corrected we had 11 players, thanks Cara.

Hootie Hoo...!!!!

February 20th Hoodie-Hoo Day!

Hoodie-Hoo Day February 20th

Northern Hemisphere Hoodie-Hoo Day

When : Always on February 20

On this winter day, people go out at noon, wave their hands over their heads and chant "Hoodie-Hoo".

It is a day to chase away winter and bring in spring. After all, everyone in the northern hemisphere are sick and tired of winter at this point and a little crazy being cooped up inside all winter and not seeing the sun. It is an actual holiday!

Tsunami In Mourning

What can I say; disappointment, sadden, disbelief...
