Maremoto FC 2 - 3 FC Lightning

Despite having an inexperienced goalkeeper, Nic, Maremoto FC managed to keep the game close against FC Lightning. Although it was clear Maremoto could have tied or even won the match, FC Lightning won in large part because of their diminutive female striker. The defense did a great job of shutting down the Smurf-like striker, but she proved to be too big a pest. (I have provided an artist's rendering of the opponent's star striker, to the right).

An early goal from Andrea gave Maremoto a momentary lead and Beth regained the lead with her first goal of the season. 'New-boys' Sam and William did a great job of fitting into a defensive system anchored by Lauren, Vivian and Beth. Unfortunately, Maremoto lost again but the team's improved organization gives reason to remain optimistic.

Player(s) of the Match: The Women. They all played great, On defense they maintained organization and hustled. Offensively, they generated most scoring opportunities and scored our only goals. Thank you Andrea, Beth, Lauren, and Vivian.
