I still can't believe this happened!!
Ava Kate and her soccer team are the U14 ESSL Champs!!! Whoop, whoop!!
This has been a long time coming and we honestly didn't know if we would get there. This year was our last chance. Our season hadn't gone so well. We were seeded 5th out of 14 teams. Tournaments came up and we played Lake first.
Lake was the team we played in our first game of the season. We lost 4-0.
We beat them in the tournament game, 3-1.
We made it to the next round.
We were facing Eastwood who we lost to in the regular season, 4-1.
They were seeded 1st.
The game ends with a tie score of 0-0.
TWO OVERTIMES. Still 0-0.
We go to a shootout.
The top 5 shooters from each team.
Ava was first, make the goal.
We went back and forth to the final kickers.
Genoa scored. Eastwood missed.
They missed!!! We won!! We beat the #1 team to go into the championship game.
We were facing Oak Harbor who we lost to 2-1 in regular season.
Right off the bat, we scored 2 goals but them came back to tie. There was 3 minutes in the game and MYA RETHMAN scored!!!!!
We were over the moon! Screams, cheers, crying (hmmm....who???)
Hugs and thank yous and good games and congrats while we received our trophies!!
ESSL U14 Champs!!
Which clinched us a spot for the state tournament.
Be prepared because we are heading to Cincinnati!!!
