JPII Soccer suffered a couple more tough defeats this week. Originally they were supposed to play their last 2 games this week, but due to a rainout they scheduled another game on Wednesday. They lost both their games on Tuesday and Wednesday to the same team, by the same score 9-0… actually it was a mercy rule for both days. The last game is scheduled on Thursday, but due to Hurricane Michael it is has already been cancelled and we are assuming they won’t bother to make it up because it won’t change the outcome of the season. They didn’t qualify for the tournament so tonights game was probably their last of the season.
In other news, Tuesday night was senior night for JPII and this year we only had 1 senior and that was Sam’s friend, Blaze. Blaze is also on the cross country team with Sam and he was nice enough to take Sam to practice during the summer before he got his car. Well anyway, part of Senior night is that the Seniors get to pick the following year’s Captain. So can you guess what happened next? Yup – that’s right Blaze picked Sam to be next year’s Captain of the Soccer team! Sam got to wear the Captain’s armband for tonight’s game and he was pretty excited. Unfortunately it didn’t change the outcome of tonight’s game, but we have a whole year to get ready for next season.
