Today we played Alaska. We had our scouting report before it and it was a good indicator of the team. We also found out that a girl pn the Alaska team was ejected the first game of the tournament for punching an opposing player! But luckily that didn’t phase me. We still came out just as hard and ready to win and advance. First of all, our game started 20 minutes late because there was a hole in the ground! They finally fixed it and we started the game. At the very start of the game a penalty kick was called against our team. And they scored. It was heartbreaking, especially being on the bench. Because there is nothing you can do. But our team pulled together and scored two goals before the half. And 2-1 is the most dangerous lead you could have. And I scored the final goal! With 15 minutes left in the half. It guaranteed out win. But we still had to work for each other and play our hardest til the end. I’m so excited to play in the quarter finals on Friday!
