The Aggieland Texans U-14 girls team (my team) played with energy and enthusiasm. They slipped one past the other team's keeper to go up 1-0, then let in an unstoppable free kick that bounced down off the upper corner and into the opposite side. They handled the ups and downs of the game (including the red-carding of an opponent on a pretty minor offense and the ejection of the opposing coach) with maturity. They also raise their level of competitive spirit instead of whining and making excuses when the other team played fast and hard.
Final score 1-1.
I am really proud of them.
Congrats to your team, Vickie! It certainly sounds like they played with the right spirit.
ReplyDeleteI have been thinking about you so much lately. We'll be lanyarding at my house over this Labor Day weekend in honor of Erin and childhood cancer awareness month.
Loads of love,
