..Newington Wrapup Tournament..
Report
The bracket was set, 5 great
teams must face each other, no room for errors, one loss and you will be out of
the first place.
Going into the tournament we were ready for anything, we knew that all the other
teams play well and the completion will be tough.
We faced two great teams on Saturday, Burlington and South Windsor, we were
ready… on the end of the day we had won both games which put us at the top of
our group going into Sunday show down.
First game Sunday was against
WH team to which we have lost before. All the players stepped up their game and
gave WH a run for their money…unfortunately we came up short and lost to WH 3-1
after a great game.
The last game was against
Hartford, we needed a win or a tie to take 2nd place. All our players were
tired after giving everything they had
during the WH game.
We were playing good but the Hartford team had the edge most of the game…we were
down 1-0 and then 2-1 with five minutes to go.
We needed all players to give a last effort and try to score and tie the game.
With time running out our troops stepped up and scored a goal with less then 3
minutes to play to secure the second place in the tournament. Great goal and
great effort from everyone.
Competition was very tough,
but the team showed that we can play with any team out there which gave the team
a second place finish.
NICE JOB EVERYONE
