No News Today - Enjoy Your Holiday

 I gave all players three days off, and enjoyed a day off for myself yesterday. Family and church and nature are helping me prepare for the going of the season.  Waiting for "guidance" from the Athletic Department I the form of policies for practice and tryouts that were promised this weekend.  Hopefully you all saw the memo on transportation.  I have asked for one clarification.  Players drive to school.  Players drive to practice.  So why not allow players to travel to away games that in some instances this year are closer than travel to school.  Feel free to contact the school and ask for that logical policy clarification.

Tryout and practice schedules will be posted tonight.

JV2 and Freshmen Cap the Season With a Classic

 Soccer seasons don't always end the way they are drawn up. The best laid plans can be waylaid by pandemics, bad weather, and bad fortune.  But good luck, and great results, are sometimes the residue of good planning.  After a long, long season (since June, for many of these players), it would be understandable if fatigue and stress and ennui would make it hard to stage an epic game.  Yet on Wednesday afternoon, with the slanting sunlight illuminating the dappled orange foliage surrounding The Pasture, the JV2 and Freshman teams staged a classic.  The final match in a long intramural series was the best one played, and came down to the wire before the Freshmen eked out a 2-1 victory.  It was truly, though, a match with all winners.  Both teams shrugged off distractions, made no excuses, and went after each other with skill and tactical maturity.
