Man what a soccer game for Tampax.
When Brian and I got there, we were told that our best player, and arguably the best player in the league, broke his toe last night, Brian was already tired because he had to play in his intramural bball game earlier, and Tyler is with the Illinois basketball team in San Diego. So, thats a downer from the start.
We grabbed a 1-0 lead, and it ended up at 1-1 at the half, but then the other team broke through for 2 more goals, so it was 3-1. And then there were two minutes left in the game, and we scored. And then in the last forty seconds of the game, we scored the again! Leanne's hustle and Brian's placement, woohoo.
So it came down to a shootout. We had all the momentum, Brian and Leanne scored in the shootout, and some goalie stopped their four attempts, and it was over! The Tampax Runstoppers with a HUGE come from behind victory! This is what a moral victory feels like, coming back without our best player with two minutes left. The thrill if victory. Yea, we were thrilled. The girls even brought kool-aid and oatmeal creame pies for after the game!
So this was the semi-final. We were happy enough to make the Final Four, and thrilled to win this game. Whats going to happen in the Championship match? Well...the other team is really good. So who knows. We'll have fun out there, hope for another shootout.
In the second half though, I had to come out and charge a ball, and in the process I took out one of their girls and hurt her. She cried. I felt bad. Yea.
GO TAMPAX!
