Game Summary - Perk Valley

It's amazing what we can do when we want to do. Truly Amazing.
This was only their 3rd time over the half way in 6 minutes... and they score. They score first - why? Players standing and watching instead of doing in the 6th minute.
But we did get 3 shots off before they had one.
We come back in the 18th minute on a shot from Kane with assist from Picardi.
Okay - we have a game.
Oh - did I tell you that in 16 minutes they were in our half only 7 times?
In the 24th minute we take the lead with a shot from Caffarello and assist from Strawley. We were in their half 30 of the 40 minutes.
Half Time - we are leading 2-1. We are CONTROLLING them.
I know their coach was really worried according to my spy at halftime. He told his team that we suck and that we only beat Pottstown.
Well part of that is true.
We did beat Pottstown and we do NOT suck. I thought that we were a superior team today - for the most part.
It takes PV 59 minutes to tie us. And we still controlled them.
They win in the 81st minute - overtime because simply we can not take charge on the field. We got lazy in the last 20 minutes and started to stand and watch instead of do.

Let's all say a prayer for #3 of PV that was taken off the field via ambulance.

We are a young team. I am happy as long as we build on something after each game.
You saw that you can control a team. This will continue as long as you win the ball, cover each other, talk and do instead of watching.
Watching = losing.

Players of the day: Kelly and Strawley.Honorable mention: Meszaros, Shainline and DeLeo (This was very tough decision today)
L 3-2 (OT). Game grade B+. Overall record: 2-9. pac10: 1-7.
