The La Forza girls gave it their all today in the hopes of
securing a victory in the final game of the season. Samantha got the start in
goal this afternoon, and she did her best to keep her team in the game. She made
several nice saves over the course of the half and led her team to a 0-0 tie at
halftime. In the second half she moved to the field to provide some offense, and
she almost provided a much needed goal for her team. Unfortunately the opposing
goalie managed to secure the save, keeping the La Forza girls scoreless. There
was a new girl in net for the second half today as well, all in an attempt to
provide her some experience for the indoor season that will be coming up soon.
She was nervous as could be, and she wound up letting in two goals, one of which
was on a penalty kick - it is tough to blame her for that one. While it was a
tough season overall for the girls, it was good for them to get some experience
working together. Samantha and Lauren, her teammate from last season, really
stepped up as vocal leaders. Sam also was a more aggressive player this season,
something that we hope carries on to the spring. Great job girls!
