Celtic Cup

Friday night I got a text from Troy, the Arsenal North coach, asking if Allison could play in a tournament this weekend in San Bernadino.  She already had a scrimmage scheduled for Saturday afternoon and futsal in the evening, but I drove her up for the Saturday morning game and all day Sunday.  The team finished with a tie in Saturday morning and a win in the afternoon.  They had to win Sunday morning's game to advance to the finals.  The game ended tied at the end of regulation so they had to go to penalty kicks to determine the winner.  
 Allison's teammates scored all of their goals and Allison blocked one of the opponent's goals to win the game and advance to the championship!  
 They won the final as well with a 3-0 victory!  
 The team was so grateful to have Allison play and she got some great practice before her tournament in Las Vegas next weekend.
Each of the players got a medal and Champions t-shirt for the victory!
