This wasn't one of our prettier games in recent years. We started the game with some challenged defense, little offense, and felt like we played a fair portion of the game on our heels. (.....ummm, you got it.....no, you got it.....no, you got it.....). I don't think they scored on that one, but as we can see, it wasn't too pretty.
I think our amoeba offense and amoeba defense (see above) didn't help the situation, but in all fairness to the team, I think all of our opponents had at least several years of hockey (or professional broomball) under their belts. Excellent passing and laser shooting gave them a distinct advantage, overall, in this game.
We did have some very bright notes in the game, despite the score. Kate stepped up to the ice (as it were) attempting to fill the very large shoes of Pete as our goalie. Reasoning was to try to even up the match with 4 men and 3 women running up and down the ice at the same time. I can't say that our new offensive/defensive strategy worked all that well this week, but again, they were a pretty good team. We'll try it again next week, hoping for a better outcome.
And the shining star this week was Emily Smith! She hustled, was aggressive around our opponents goal and attacked the ball wherever it was on the ice. Way to go Emily!
"Where am I? One minute I was sleeping, and the next minute I find myslef in this red plastic tub...what the hell!?"
"If only I could wrap my mouth around this ball...it seems too big...but I'm gonna try to do it anyway, and when I get it, I'm gonna squeeze the living daylights out of it....or I could just take a nap...either would be fine with me!"
"If we're not in DisneyWorld, I'm gonna be pissed..."
Until next week.....ciao.....
