So, last year, Julia's team won one game in the entire season. They played hard, but it wasn't in the cards.
This year, seems to be much better. They won two varsity games early on, then went into a spiral of powerhouses. The team was getting annoyed, but yesterday was a pick-them-up.
Yesterday, Jules' team beat Little Flower, winning 3-1. It's the first time they had three varsity wins and a JV win for a year or two. Now, they aren't a powerhouse yet, but the team is really congealing into a good team.
Julia did let the only goal in, but after she composed herself, she activated Beast Mode, and Little Flower didn't get a goal after that. Between Jules (sophomore), Sydney (freshman), and Kara (junior), the three of them dominated, along with the goaltender.
It was Senior Night, and we had dinner afterward in the cafeteria. It was a good day, and they have two more games left on Monday and Tuesday.
Kevin has a cross-country had a meet yesterday as well. Finished overall 71 out of 90, but the powerhouse LaSalle pretty much destroyed many of the runners.
Great news! Congrats to the team of young ladies.
ReplyDeleteCongrats!!
ReplyDeleteForgot to ask in my comment a couple of days ago - did the goalie return?
ReplyDeleteRG - Yeah, they ended the season yesterday. Varsity finished 3-9, and JV won a game as well.
ReplyDeleteKitty - Thanks. In yesterday's game, one of the opposing girl threw an elbow into her face. She bled a bit, but she never got off the field.
RG - Yes, the goalie coach got her back with Julia helping. Kyleigh is the nicest person you would ever meet, and after the game, Kyleigh jumped on Julia's back and they ran around for a bit. They're effectively sisters at this point.
