Out with a BANG!



Makaila's team had their last game against Sparta on Saturday. This team is doing such a fantastic job! Their team has been through some ups and down this past year and is on their 3rd coach but they have grown and pulled through strong. We don't know the final standing but we believe they are solidly in 2nd place or tied for 1st. This last game was so exciting for me and I have to brag a minute. Makaila came out and played so hard she scored the first goal of the game with a hard left foot and she is not a lefty when we saw her take the shot we were waiting for her to shank it but she cleared it hard and it was powerful, she sent the goalie out with it actually. That first goal changed the momentum for the whole team. Makaila scored the 2nd goal with a penaly kick from nearly mid-field. Right before the end of the first half she then headed it and almost got a 3rd goal and quite a reaction from the coaches. She was on fire and aggressive and won the MVP award. The rest of the game she made great passes and great assists and her team went on to win 6-0.
