    While today's game did not result in their first victory of the season, the La Forza girls did manage to secure their first draw. Samantha started in the field, which is a switch from the usual pattern. She played pretty well while in the field, and I still contend that this is where I would like to see her play full time. She moved into the net in the second half, where she managed to keep the MESA team off the board. After giving up a goal in the first half, the La Forza girls finally managed to score their first goal of the spring late in the game to tie things up, leading to the draw as time expired. After the game Sam told her coach that she would be willing to move to goal full time for a few games, although I suspect that she would occasionally like to see some time in the field as well.
