Due to inclement weather and an assortment of other
obligations this year, Samantha really hasn't had many opportunities to practice
with her team so far this season. Thankfully it didn't really matter today, as
she combined with her teammates to score 6 goals, winning the first game of the
year 6-1. (This should have been their second game of the year, but the fields
were underwater on opening weekend.) Samantha's play has really improved since
taking up the indoor game last fall. She was able to control the ball nicely,
and had several scoring opportunities. She did manage to put the ball into the
back of the net once in the second half, and she just missed the net on a couple
of other opportunities. All in all, a great opening game effort.
Congratulations, Sammie!
