Game on!
Today was Zachary’s (#33) first soccer game of the season. Today, as it turns out, was also a day for victory. Sweet Jaguar victory.
I was a little disappointed that Zachary started as goalie, but it worked out. Oh, the stress! He stopped three goals. He was like the Black Knight in the Holy Grail - “None shall pass!” Fortunately, he didn’t lose any limbs. But in the second half he played a mid-fielder of some sort (if only my soccer superstar friend had attended, he could have explained some things to us. But alas, he had more important things to tend to.).
In the first five minutes of the second half, Zachary scored a goal. His goal was one of two, with the other team scoring one. Although I heard that their goal didn’t count for some reason. (Again, a little counsel would have gone a long way here.) Either way, the Jaguars won - whether by one or by two, it was still a great game. It was apparent that the kids are now a little older, a little wiser, and a little more aggressive.
This is going to be a great season!
