GO BLUE!

Ann Arbor does not have any professional sports teams, but that has not stopped us from remaining avid sports fans. Fortunately, the University of Michigan (U of M) has world class teams in a number of sports that we enjoy.

Of course, our favorite sport is soccer, and we have become quite the fans of the U of M Women's soccer team. Our first year here, we attended many of the home matches, but COVID put a big damper on our ability to watch games last year. Therefore, we were super excited to attend our first game of the season last weekend.

U of M faced Penn State in the Big Ten Championship quarterfinal, and the Wolverines dominated from start to finish. Fun was had by all - except Penn State -, and the win catapulted us into the seminfinals, which we won against Purdue.




Yesterday, Nicholas and I watched the Championship match against number one seeded Rutgers. Fortunately, our team got an early goal and hung on to win 1-0!

The NCAA Tournament is next, and U of M will host a first round match. Hopefully, this will not conflict with our schedules, and we will be able to see our team make their way to the next round. Go Blue!
