Up and at it on Sunday again….another early start (pre 7 am), sadly for Mom, there’s no sleeping in on her day.
This round yellow thing was hanging in the sky for our game, so, that offset the 40 degrees of temperature we had (games were delayed for 30 minutes for frost….).
The Game: We lost, 6-3, which looks a lot closer than it really was….we were down 4-0 about ten minutes in. Boys played ok; again, had a Christopher lapse right at the beginning but he played well as the game went on…..need to figure out how to have him moving and going right at the start in a more consistent fashion. Matthew had an assist that Dad didn’t properly recognize, so, after being castigated about that I have to reward him with the $5 of ice cream goodness at our next practice.
Tournament ended with us going 1-2….wish we had won that first game. Really really happy with how Matthew played; 2 goals and 2 assists in our 8 goals says it all. Christopher, for all my typing about lapses, had long stretches of solid solid play, sadly, any mistake he has is almost always going to lead to a goal scored against us, so, he gets dinged more than when things don’t go right.
