NC Soccer Club - Spring Kickof, Hudson, Ohio - April 24-26, 2009.
Game one against Neo United Red got started with our girls scoring within the first minute of play. Neo scored 2 goals near the end of the first half and another one shortly into the second half. Undaunted and down 1 - 3, our girls rallied and scored the next 3 goals to win 4-3 in an extremely exciting match.
Game two was a hard fought battle with Central United. Neither team was able to put the ball into the net and the game ended in 0 - 0 tie.
Game three against OSU would determine if we would make the finals. This was another hard fought battle. Again, we could not find the back of the net, and unfortunately OSU's only score was enough to win the game, 0 - 1.
Although we just missed making the finals, a great time was had by all.
