The Tsunami get their game face on!




The Tsunami rolled to an impressive 3-3 tie in this week's game. We had great play from everyone and every team member showed great energy and complained when I took them out to rest (those are the complaints I like to hear). I want to note the excellent goalie work we got from Nick and William. Those guys are solid.
Erin had two goals including one that really had to thread the needle to find the goal but Erin let it fly like she knew it would go in. Avery had our third goal. She really showed everyone her skills in this game. I also have to mention the throw-in from Olivia that led to one of Erin's goals. It was about the best throw-in I've ever seen.

I want to thank Amy and Chris Holthaus and Lisa Roedig for their help in last week's practice. It really helped and everyone seemed to be playing their positions with more confidence this week, especially our defenders.
We'll practice this Wednesday then take a weekend off for the holiday and get back to it on Wednesday the 9th.

Hi - It's Avery's mom, Lisa. I just wanted to make a few comments.

I want to thank each player for their excellent performance this week. I saw improvement in each player and also as a team. The effort was awesome! I was so proud of each of them!!

Thank you, Pat for allowing some of us parent to help at practice. We love it!

I will try to do less "coaching" from the sidelines this week and more cheering =-). I get so excited; Hopefully you weren't next to me last week - if you were, well I hope you have some hearing left!!

Tsunami - YOU ROCK!
