Jayden's soccer team, dubbed the Grizzlies - Grrr! -
played in their fourth game on a Tuesday night. It seemed as though the girls
came out fired up, but lost a bit of steam as the game wore on. Jay was first in
goal tonight, and while she did an excellent job in net her team was busy
staking her a 2-0 lead. She moved to the field for the second half of action
(sitting the second quarter, and going out for part of the third & fourth with
an injury after falling and having another player fall on her, pushing her face
into the ground). While she didn't score today, she did have a couple of nice
looks at the goal. The score remained 2-0 until the final moments, when the
opposition finally managed to get one behind our goal keeper. Right after the
goal was score, the whistle blew, and the Grizzles had earned their third
victory of the season by a 2-1 margin. Great game girls!
