Game 6

June 1st, 2013              

    Today's game was a back and forth affair, and the final score didn't really reflect how competitive it was overall. The La Forza girls seemed to do a little bit better job on defense in limiting the Ann Arbor girls shots on goal, and they took advantage of their own opportunities when they were afforded their own shots on goal. Sam started out in the field today, and really impressed Tara & I with her footwork. She appeared to be motivated... possibly she wanted to make up for the fact that we drove all the way to Ann Arbor before she realized that she forgot her shoes? And that we had to go and buy a brand new pair, arriving at the field minutes before the game started? Possibly. She played in goal in the second half, and stopped every shot she faced. Overall it was a good game for both Sam and her La Forza teammates. The good day was sealed with a 3-1 victory, their third win in a row, moving them to 3-1-2 on the season. I hate to say it, but maybe the embarrassment of the "parent blow-up game" was good for this team...
