U15 Game 6

Samantha received a last minute call asking if she would be willing to fill in for some injured players on the U15 Michigan Impact team. Of course she jumped at the opportunity, so off we went for her second game of the day. She was pretty nervous about playing with girls that she barely knew, but I think that she more than held her own. Unfortunately for the regular U15 girls, they aren't having as good of a season as the U14 girls are, as they have managed to win just a single game so far this fall season. This game was tight until just after halftime, when the Jaguars broke open the game with two quick goals to take a 2-0 lead. The Impact girls fought back late, scoring a goal to make it close. They applied a ton of pressure as the game was winding down, but they couldn't find the back of the net to tie the game up, suffering a 2-1 defeat as the game was called with 4 minutes remaining due to darkness.
