Samantha started the second game of the day in goal once
again, and played well enough to keep her team in the game until halftime.
Although she allowed one goal, her team did little to help her on either end of
the field - they were unable to sustain any offensive attack and the defense
seemed to be lacking as well. Unfortunately for Sam she wound up taking a kick
directly to the head while making a save towards the end of the half, and due to
the pain and the growing egg-shaped lump sprouting from her forehead she was
forced to sit out the second half of the game. Her team could have used her, as
they struggled their way to a 4-1 defeat without her on the field.
