First Place! ... Sorta

Claire had her last soccer game of the season and they squeaked out a win by one goal! And lo and behold, they got first place this season, which surprised us a bit.



After all, the Pirates had beat us twice and we had only beat them once - we figured they had won first place. And they did. First place gold. We were first place silver. I'm not sure how I feel about that - would a second place trophy have been so bad? The girls don't know the difference or don't seem to mind. I guess I am the only competitive one who cares about it... Let it go Shannon...

They were pretty stoked to get their trophies plus their plaques with their official photos. Here is Claire's photo scanned in:


Most of our team is coming back next season, and Matt is going to coach again along with Coach Jen. She was a huge help to us this season. Matt is going to be even more busy with his Faculty Assistant job, but at least when you are coach you have a say in what time the team practices each week. And he gets to spend time with Claire too.

We had a good group of girls this year - great job Tiger Lillies!
