Robert's 3v3 Team - Speed of Light

Not to give it away BUT the boys did awesome - living up to their name.  It's a great group of guys this year…Robert, Aaron Green, Ryan Danehy, Trent Stigler  (friends from NOMS and Aaron has been Robert's best friends since we moved to KY), and a friend from St. X PJ Roadah (don't know the spelling of his last name).  Anyway - these 5 are the TEAM!!!

Against 5 Guys + 1
Game #1:  Verses team FIVE GUYS (their friends from NOHS Soccer) @ 8:00 am

Robert's team was unstoppable.  They played an amazing game and just held super positioning and focus.  Their passes were on and their shots were perfect.  They won the game 16-1.

Game #2:  Verses team LEXINGTON @ 12:30 pm

The guys on the Lexington team look to be at least one if not two years older than our freshman.  It's a HS league so it's anything from 14-18 years of age.  This game is much more competitive and the Lexington team has a strong defense.  The score was 1-1 when … Unfortunately, 4 minutes into this game the power to the whole sports complex was cut - actually the power to the whole area was lost.  We waited around for about an hour before they announced that the complex wouldn't have power for another hour.  We decided to leave and get some food.  The game started again at 2:30.  We held a very competitive game through half time 4-3 (down by one).  But then Lexington defended all our shots; one after another.  A shot that would have been beautiful was skillfully blocked just in the nick of time … our boys started to get frustrated and lost focus.  We fell behind.  The game ended 10-4.  That will cost them the championship opportunity.

Game #3:  Verses team MANUAL

This game should be like our second game.  They are bigger guys and seem to be at least a year older.  The boys will have to work together to win this.  WOW!  It was a great game.  Our boys started out strong and scored a goal immediately.  Then again … it was great.  The score at half time was ? - ?  The Final score was 8-4 (we let them have a last shot which they nailed).
