Attack Summer Classic Champions!

Allison played with the combo team this weekend at the Attack Summer Classic in Oceanside.  On Saturday, they won 3-0 against Arsenal SD at tied 1-1 against San Marcos.  They won again on Sunday with a 2-0 score over Rancho Santa Fe to advance to today's championship.  
Unfortunately, the final game was at 2:00 so the girls had to be checked out of school early.  We played with a small roster since some of the girls wouldn't miss school.  However, the girls finished the game with a 0-0 tie against Carlsbad…sending the game into penalty kicks!  I could see Allison by herself on the sideline, mentally preparing.  She was in a zone!  
3 out of 4 of our players scored on their opportunity.  Carlsbad's 1st player put one over the top and then here is the series of photos of Allison blocking their 2nd attempt.  Thanks for the pics Leslie!
She lined up with confidence...
guessed the correct side...
dove as far as she could...
and brought the ball to her chest!  The 3rd player put another one over the top and we won 3-0!
The players came rushing in and charged Allison and shared a great group hug!  So proud of her!

It was an extra special day because the other team that Allison practices with also won 1st place in their bracket.  A very successful weekend for all of Coach Heidi's girls.
 Receiving their medals and taking a picture for the website.
 The team will pass around the trophy and Coach told Allison she could take it home first.
Allison loves having Zoey as one of her defenders.  She played great and helped them only allow 1 goal all weekend!!  Great job girls!
