BACK ON TRACK

Today, Monster Mash returned to the court to play its first game after losing to FC Chaos last week. Before the game, I reflected on our prior game and defeat with the boys. I talked about how we started off tentatively last week and that we lacked confidence and control. I told them that if that if we played our best and focused that we could beat practically any team. I also told them that we should fear no team because we are in this together!

The boys appeared to hear these words, and we came back strong and defeated the Hurricanes 9-5. It was a great team performance, and every one of our players contributed to the victory. The game was capped off by a gorgeous play started by Nicholas at midfield. He passed to Quincy who made a darting run down the right flank. He crossed the ball to a surging Torben who scored with a beautiful back heel goal. Class!

What a way to bounce back! It is so great to see the boys playing well and having fun! I told them that that is the only thing that matters out there. Here's to Monster Mash!
