Game 10

Tyler's JV soccer team played their final game of the season at home against Oxford High School's JV team on Thursday, October 10th. For a while this appeared as if it might be a good game, as the play was back and forth between the two teams. Holly even got on the scoreboard first, as Tyler scored his first goal of the season by settling down a loose ball and kicking it into the net! The 1-0 lead was short lived however, as Oxford scored 6 unanswered goals after that. While it wasn't the finish to the season that anyone had hoped for, I was glad to see Tyler end it on a high note. Nobody knows at this point if this will be the end of his soccer career or not, but if it is, what a way to go! Regardless of the win-loss record, Tara & I are extremely proud of Tyler for going out and giving his all in a sport that he hasn't played since 2007. Not only that, but playing significant minutes and even scoring a goal in the process! Great job Tyler!
