We are the Champions!!

I spent the weekend with Victoria at the Midfest tournament. They ended the tournament 3-1, with the Championship Trophies!! Two of the teams we played were not good at all. In the second game, we were already up 5 goals early in the first half. The coach let the girls all switch up positions during the second half. Our defenders were on offense & mid, offense was back in defense and our goalie was even playing offense. We ended up winning 8-1. They did score one goal when our goalie was on offense. It was fun to watch them laugh and have a good time. We almost didn't win the final game. We were down 2 goals, with not a lot of time left. The first goal the other team scored was called offsides by the linesman, but the center ref choose to ignore the call. He said, "I have the whistle." I give the girls a lot of credit because they never stopped tying. We tied the game up with only a couple minutes left. We then put two more goals in during overtime to win 4-2.

Maddy's team lost on Saturday, but won on Sunday. Alex's football team won Sunday too! Of course no pictures, since I had the camera. I'm going to Alex's game this weekend and Mark gets to drive to Cleveland & Akron for Victoria's games.

Here are some pictures from the game :)
