Women won...Men went home.

The two games were both difficult. The women did not score for 60 minutes, as Iowa Central bunked up in a 5-4-1 and played strong marking our goal scorers rather well. Fortunatly we have other girls that can score. The girls wdominated possesion and won 3-0 in regulation. The men BATTLED, what a great match! They lost in overtime 1-0 on a contreversial no call...our G.K. got tackled on a corner kick leaving our 6 Box vacant for marshalltown to exploit us. It was very unfortunate. The other team received 8 yellow cards, the coach earned one himself. Sadly, the better team did not win...such is life in soccer. The boys were complemented for their grace and sportsmanship as they did not retaliate to the the oppositions cheap play. When the match was over the other team mooned (yes Brandi...naked Bumb) our womens team and the rest of the crowd. It was sad to see a classy team defeated by such a poor team.

We head to Peoria, Illinois this weekend. While mom and dad are flying to FRANCE(!) I will be on a 7 hour bus ride to smallville. The ladies have to win one game on saturday to go to nationals in Albany, Georgia. Wish them luck!

Love and miss you all!

P.S. Excited for Halloween Pictures!!!!!!
