Sodium started their Southern road trip with a very lack-luster win over EMFC '95 Magic. The first half looked like an underwater scene from a bad "B" movie. Even though most of the play was in the Magic's 18 yard box, there was a lot of standing around and 'slow motion' action.
After the break it got worse. Not only were we standing around, most of the action was in our quarter of the field! Kristin Boone did an outstanding job in goal shutting down the Magic attack. Finally, in the last 2.5 minutes of the game, Hannah Hartford had a break-a-way down the left sideline, ripped a shot that the goalie deflected (in an exhibition of self preservation) and a very alert Emmy Owens was there to slide tackle the ball into the back of the net.
Now, I know this entry seems harsh but after last Sunday's awesome display of the potential this team has, today's game was nothing to write home about.
If history can repeat itself, and we come out Sunday with our "A" game, we stand a chance to beat a very good Oregon Rush '95 Nike team. If we play like we did today, sorry. Check the standings (to the right), you'll see OR Rush '95 Nike hasn't allowed a goal all season and has only scored one less goal. A formidable foe to say the least. Good luck tomorrow girls, If you bring IT, you will win.
(We believe in you guys!!) GO SODIUM!
