Legends FC Classic

    We spent the weekend in Chino Hills for Taylor's first tournament with Legends FC. They won their first game 1-0 against Santa Monica.  The afternoon battle was a much tougher one, but we finished with a 1-1 tie against Sherman Oaks.  Unfortunately, that left us in 2nd place for our bracket and a set spot in Sunday's consolation game.  Legends faced OC Premier on Sunday afternoon and although we dominated much of the game, the girls couldn't put a ball in the net and we ended in a 0-0 tie.
    It was fun to finally see this team compete after months of training.  They have lots of kinks to work out, but they have a lot of passion and a great coach to guide them.  Taylor was strong at left and right midfield and I think she will be a good addition to this team.  They are back on the pitch again next weekend and have several tournament opportunities to improve before league begins in August...
