Girls Soccer is Kicking! (And other Sports Updates)

We had our first Minute Maid soccer game yesterday! The good girls, Johnston, played the poor sports, Jane Long...and we were the victors! 3-0! They had a darn good goalie, without which it could have been ugly. But, we will take the win. Unfortunately, the Jane Long girls are not very good sports and felt the need to use profanity and a little bit of bullying with our mild tempered, sweet, young JMS ladies. I was very proud of how our girls behaved and carried themselves. They made us coaches and our school very proud! Plus, we kicked butt! We play J. Long quite a few more times...so we will see how it all goes. Wish us luck!

Also, if the 7th grade football boys win on Monday they will be Zone Champs! Keep them in your thoughts and prayers. They have fought hard and are often considered the underdogs. So, this is a great opportunity for those guys. Unfortunately the 8th grade team lost last night due to some very un-sportsmanly behavior by B.C. Elmore. (High school boys on the team, rough play, etc.) The game is being reviewed and we will see. The only thing that we really care about is that our 2 players (QB and his backup) have a quick recovery. They were both injured pretty badly and will probably be out for some time. We pray that they will be ok and will make a quick come-back. Especially because that is all those boys want to do...to play football.
