3v3

I have to admit I wasn't really looking forward to this year's 3v3 after the sweltering, unbearable heat of last year!  Luckily, the weather cooperated a little bit better and we had a great day at Rancho Jurupa Sports Complex.
 The Academy team merged with the Black team and created 4 teams of 6 to compete in the tournament.  Allison was on the Hawkquitos with Kat, Abby, Monica, Aubree and Kemberly.  
 I got to put my coaching cap back on and enjoyed spending the day with these girls.  We won our first game 6-0, lost our 2nd 4-1 and won the 3rd 5-0 to advance to the Semi's.  Unfortunately, we lost 5-0 to a very tough Legends North team.
Allison scored a few goals and had a great time spending the whole day as a field player, since 3v3 doesn't use a keeper.
 These 3 were sad to all be put on different teams, but still spent their downtime together in the shade or cheering on each other's teams.
After a long, hot day, we stopped for dinner and ice cream at The Habit with Zoey and Darian. The girls will enjoy a nice week off for 4th of July and then get back into practice to prepare for our upcoming tournaments in July and August.
