Victory is ours!!......

Today was Team Crush Game 2. I have to say the game was one of the funnest things I have been to in years and not cause my Son is on the team and my Husband is the Coach. Watching those kids run around was a pure delight.

Game Highlights: Team Yellow got the kick off and dominated the first quarter scoring a quick goal. After the water break Team Crush took over the field scoring 3 goals and keeping the ball out of the defense zone. One of our players even took a ball in the chest in order to gain back control. After another water break Yellow Team shook up the game by dribbling through our holes in the defense and scored 2 more goals.
The last quarter was the finest for both teams. Powerful Team Yellow stole the ball and scored. But not to be defeated Team Crush with outstanding assisting scored 2 goals. One of which was done by none other then Benjamin! This was by far one of the greatest moments in my life. I was screaming the entire time Ben was dribbling down the field and once he and his team mates got in front of the goal one of the Yellow Team stole the ball, but our team stole it right back and got it right in front of the goal and with all his might Ben kicked that sucker right in. Oh, man it still brings tears to my eyes to think about it. After he got his goal he turned to me and gave me a thumbs up.
