Bays at WAGS - Unbelievable effort
These girls continue to amaze us. After going through the preliminary matches on Saturday and Sunday with a record of 2-0-1, the Bays were ready for a run at the title come Monday. The initial round of competition saw the Bays play some great soccer. The goals came, and the defense held, and we played our typical possession type soccer. The team that hasn't had much time together this fall due to high school committments, was finally coming together. However, on Monday morning we lost 5 of our High School players as they had games. Of the 11 remaining, a portion of them were sick, so quite a task ahead for the group that remained. We won in the semi-final, 2-0 against the State Champs from South Carolina. No subs available, and without 5 starters, it was awesome to see our girls step up and play so well. 2 hours later, the final awaited against BSA Rage.. The game was very back ond forth and was tied 1-1 with 15 minutes left when the Rage scored off a corner kick. A well played game... We all were amazed by the effort put forth, our 5th game in 3 days, no subs, and we actually finished the game with 10 players due to an injury. These experiences will bode well for the future. Welcome back High School Girls, we can't wait until we can all practice together again, and prepare for our trip to Disney where 2 State Champs await us!!
