Knocking off number 2 in the nation was not as easy as the scoreboard says. However, we did miss a p.k. and we also had a goal called back. We have the best TEAM here at the tournament. But other teams have some pretty impressive weapons that could give us trouble. We lost our leading goal scorer and probably the best overall player in the tournament to an ACL and MCL rupture. Kim, was attacking the goal keeper 1 on 1, pushed the ball around the keeper and the keeper took her out rupturing two major ligaments. Kim has committed to a full ride scholarship at the University of Iowa and we are praying that Iowa will hold the commitment as Kim goes through rehab for the next 8 months...last night was tough...some emotions I have never felt as a coach. Mixed emotions to a win and a HUGE loss...not just for us...but Kim...she is special, great lds girl, head on straight, fun, happy and driven. I just hope she can be aninspiration to her teammates like she was a leader on the pitch.

The girls compete again tonight at 7pm eastern time. They play Laramie County out of Cheyenne, Wyoming. We have played them four times (once last year inn the tournament where we won 3-0) and have only lost to them once. We are confident, but not arrogant..the girls have shown composure and maturity so far. And everyone is in good spirits. Thanks for all of your support. Love you!
