    Jayden's first soccer game didn't go exactly as planned, as her team struggled to find the back of the net until late in the game. Despite going into halftime scoreless, the Wolves (as they voted to be called this spring) allowed three second half goals. It wasn't until late in the game that one of Jay's teammates found the back of the net with the ball to avoid the shutout, as the girls fell by a score of 3-1. Jay played pretty well overall today, as she was able to dribble the ball down the field consistently. She didn't have any luck getting off any quality shots, but not for a lack of effort. She was forced into action in goal when her teammate took a shot to the face (made worse by the fact that she wears glasses - ouch!), forcing her to come out of the game. She did allow one goal, but she was out trying to make a save and got caught from the backside of the goal on the play. Overall, not a bad game, and she had fun on the field, which is what matters most!
