soccer games

Here's an update on our weekend soccer games: Blake's team scored in the first minute of the game, but went on to lose 4 or 5 - 1. Blake has been plagued with ankle/heel pain which seemed to worsen during the game. Garrett's team was ahead 4-1 going in to the 4th period, but the other team (the 1st place team, by the way) scored 2 goals and was knocking on our goal pretty fiercely. We were thrilled when the ref blew the whistle to end the game!! We got the call last night inviting Blake to play on the Select team for his age group - he didn't even need to try out! The coach has been attending the games to evaluate players in a game setting and was impressed with what he saw Blake doing. Thankfully, he saw the game where Blake scored 3 goals!
