Our girls team won a pretty close one last night against a scrappy Vinton squad 10-7. We played two 25 minute halves and were having so much fun that we decided to play another 10 minutes. Since we have a team of over 30, we could basically play two games back to back and not wear anyone out.
One goal was particularly impressive. One of our players went behind the goal with the ball and made a flawless pass right to her teammate on the crease who scored with a quick stick shot in the upper corner. It was a great play and I had to remind myself that these are elementary school kids out there (after the next draw, there was a big scrum around the ball and nobody could pick it up, which brought me back to reality).
For a first year team, Vinton was very good and they played really hard. They had a few players that were well skilled and everyone on their team hustled. I hope we can arrange to play them again.
