SOOOO, S9's soccer team won the city championship tonight! He is the goalkeeper and it went into a double overtime then a shootout. He stopped the first two shots and the third went over the top of the goal. He was awesome! Pics on the alt.
Hi Soco!!
I have never commented to you before, but I've seen your name. I am now, because I can relate. I have a S10 who's a gk, too! He's played club soccer since he was six, since my S12 was always playing, and he "wanted to be like HIM?" I feel your pain as a gk MOM, though! I tear my hair out! Most infamous S10 saying, as a new gk, on a new team, at a new club... (end of first half, we're down four goals) "COACH, I respectfully request a new set of Defenders!" God! I could have crawled under my chair and/or high fived him at the same time!
My S12 is a Sweeper. Boy, does their game move a lot faster! They play U13, and do a league during the week, and tournaments only during outdoor season. They're 19th in the state...
The schedule makes us nuts, but LOVE IT!
OK, now I'll go back and check out YOU! I'll chime in! (May take awhile.. I am sick in bed w/pneumonia.)

The average woman would rather have beauty than brains, because the average man can see better than he can think.
