District Championship in Pictures

District Tournament

I was a nervous wreck before tonight’s district championship game. Northeast was quick to score three goals, but our boys never gave up. Evan rallied the boys and was a tremendous encourager. 

We didn’t get the result we hoped for, but it was a hard fought game. Evan played with such intensity and heart. It may just be one of his best games. 

Keagan scored two PKs and then left the game early after suffering a knee injury - again. He’s on crutches and back to ice, ibuprofen, and bed rest. Madilyn made him a sign and had every reason to raise it. 

We lost 3-4 but we had so many opportunities to score. We just couldn’t get the ball to fall into the net. 

Both boys made the 2021 13-AAA All District Team. This is such a great honor because there are great players in our district! 

We play in Regionals on Monday night against Arlington. Keagan won’t be playing, but I fully expect Evan to have another great game! It will be a long three hour drive anticipating the game, but it will be pure elation driving three hours back home after the win. 

Tuesday’s Loss in Pictures

The joy of scoring first and being ahead was short lived. 

Keagan kept pace with H all night. 

Evan had a great defensive game. 

Pure determination. 

Keagan’s game plan to play two CDMs fell on deaf ears. Guess what? We are playing with two CDMs Thursday night! 

Both boys with the weird bird arms. 😂

Unfortunately, we lost to our district rivals. Fortunately, we maintain first place in district.
