We had a U8 tournament. We lost our first game and won our second. The team we lost to in the first game, lost to the team we beat in the second. We all scored the same number of goals. This created a three way tie on our side of the bracket.
It was quite a conundrum because it had not happened before. After much deliberation, the boys from all three teams had to do a goal kick with no goalie. One team made them all. They ended up in first. Two teams missed one each. That was us and the team we had lost to in game one. So, we lined up and did it again. We won that one, which made us second in our bracket, even though we had beaten the team that was in first.
We played the second place team from the other bracket. We were playing for third place overall. Third place would have given us a medal. Hollister really wants a medal!
No suspense here. We lost.
But, we did get trophies!!!
This season sort of flew by. It was short and the weather shortened it even more. Plus, baseball has been in full force and for us, that sport takes precedence.
Currently, we are in full baseball mode with our tournament starting Thursday night!
