Hello y'all this nonsense about having to write a blog for the tournament is absolutely no fun. all i got to talk about was how we played awesome. but, i couldnt write about how much better we were than the other team, and how we controllled the ball the entire game. plus i couldnt even talk about how the refs were sooo rude! blahh!
so yeah, i just talked about how stef did awesome in goal (as usual). Meg Kane had some wonderful clears in the back, and a few times when she saved our butts. Then jess gonzalez and kristen also played amazing in back. Then maura played great on her first time in alicia's spot! and THE Erin McQuinn played amazing as usual, not that i'm at all surprised. Alyssa played great on forward and i thought she would have scored on a few of those awesome shots!!
I think we definitely deserved to win our game, and i am so mad at the terrible refs. My favorite quote had to be when McNally was complaining about the refs and the line ref goes "COACH, HE'S A REF FOR A REASON". and mcnally goes "yeah...because he passed an OPEN BOOK test". hahhaha oh god!
get ready for a great game tomorrow girls. Play hard & dont give up. tooodles. NCNY

GAME DAY.
to fix the last blog entry, the game was called "over and out" sorry to all those i offended by getting it wrong (Missy).
today's game was awesome!! started off the game against the wind but we totally rocked it. Halfway through the first half we got lucky and got a penalty kick, which "THE Erin mcquinn" totally owned so we had the lead 1-0. The rest of the first half was a hard hard time. the other team argued A LOT, and Kristen totally egged them on! OH and steffy had some very very lucky saves in goal. then there was half time. after half, Evan yelled to Kristen "remember 0-0, and of course Kristen being Kristen goes "yeah yeah 0-0 i know". too funny! Then stef decided she was Americas Next Top Model and was fixing her hair for a good ten minutes. Needless to say, i yelled at her...a lot. then Stef set up a wall and Alicia took a ball to the face...what a SUPERSTAR! So Erin scored another two times. the other team was getting really mad, I'm pretty sure they were just referring to her as the girl in the yellow spikes. it was totes legit. all my bench warmers thought it was funny when i yelled out "hey ERIN!!! that's a hat trick!" wohooo! Missy totally rocked forward today with some amazing runs and shots off. Syd had some great shots off from very far away that i thought were about to go in!! Mary played sooo great on midfield today. Bill was her usual self, making runs and beating the other players like crazy. All the rest of the forwards and midfielders in played amazing as usual!
Now on to the defense. i think we have such a STRONG defense. First with Jess in the center. I swear that girl is faster than any of the opposing forwards. She saved our butts SO SO many times. Then Kristen and her strong kicks, both right and left footed. Jeez, I'm jealous! (and apparently that stinking ref was too because he decided it would be a good idea to call things on her ever five seconds, until Evan told him he was "picking on a very nice girl") then meg kane. holy cow, great game again miss meggy. you had some great clears and free kicks. G-O M-E-G! goooo meg!
Okay rockstars, that's all for tonight. have a wonderful weekend. Be careful and don't get too crazy. you heard what coach said...even if we do have four days off don't do anything bad!! and expect more postings if i can get on here and write some more. see you all on Monday, can't wait!! have a great Easter y'all!
and for Monday remember these wise words "to be on time is to be late". hastaaa!
ps: great quote from mia hamm for y'all to think about!
"I am a member of a team, and i rely on that team, I defer to it and sacrifice for it, because the team, not the individual, is the ultimate champion"

First Blog EVER!
Hello soccer girls! Here's the first blog, from yours truly. I just want to let you know how excited i am for this season, because i can honestly say we have an AMAZING group of girls on our team. From "THE Erin mcquinn" rocking the middle of the midfield with superstar Alicia...to Alyssa (who totally owned the goalie at our last game). Then we have Syd, Colleen, Mary, and Jill leading as our forwards. Then there's all of our midfielders including Kelsey, Killi, Missy, Maura, Kelly, Bill, Kate and again Colleen. Then there's our powerhouse defense made up of Meg, Annie, Jess Lake and Kristen, lead by Jess Gonzalez. And who could forget the wonderful goalies, Carol and Stef. (plus me but i don't really count! hah!) I'll come back to all you wonderful players in a later post, because its getting quite late today. Here's a little recap of the season thus far- totally rocked our first game against Ignatius. In my book, a total win, no big deal! Second game against Lincoln Way was a 2-0 game for our team. It was awesome to be at those games cheering y'all on! Sorry i missed the game on Saturday, so i cant really comment on that, but I'm sure you all played your hearts out!
Don't worry, this is the first of many many posts to come.. they will not all be summaries of our team...mostly just fun little stories i want to reiterate and to share in case someone missed them. you girls are truly amazing, just so you know!
On to today's practice. may i just say that i think Erin mcquinn got quite the workout from both her handstand obsession and her Irish dancing. (yes she did Irish dance). we learned that Missy is a BEAST at handstands, and legit held it for a minute at least. Mary can do a one handed cartwheel, and Alicia can do the splits. Kristen claims that she "pulled muscles in her stomach" from all the flips she was doing. Syd won in "up and overs" beating me...in my opinion i totally should have won it. Jess Lake wore a super cool neon green headband today in case anyone didn't notice. Stef Burt is kind of a beast in goal. Carol as well. Oh and Kelly needs to play goalie. And Kristen too since it seemed like a good idea for her to legit DIVE for a ball when she was in goal.
I think this is all for now, its getting a little too gossip girl-y for me!
See you all at practice mananaaaa. and just remember....NC NY
