Spring Soccer

Just as the weather is warming up, another soccer season is winding to a close. It's been a cold, but good one. Spring is the off season for the high school girls' team, so Camille's team played in a district league just for practice. There wasn't a whole lot of competition, but they got some good games in. In June they'll start conditioning for the fall season. Camille's excited for her senior year, but sad that it will be her last, and nervous because OHS is moving up to 4A.

Scott was thrilled to make the high school team this year as a freshman. He thought it was cool to hang out with the high school kids. They had a great year, losing a heart-breaker 0-1 to Park City in the State 3A semi-finals. Scott played on the JV team. He really improved over the year, earning a starting position by the end of the season. He's sad the season's over, but I'm glad to see him a little more often.


Kevin's team was undefeated this year! It's a fun team for him because several of his teammates are also his friends from school. Kevin also refereed a bunch of AYSO (rec) games on Saturdays. Kind of boring- but he didn't complain much, and he's getting pretty good at it. It's not a bad way for a 12-year-old to earn a few bucks.


Matt gets the award for most improved player. In the beginning he hardly touched the ball, but now he really goes after it, and he even scored a couple of times. He kicks the ball all over the house. (I wonder where he learned that, Scott?) We really need a lawn!
