Riley's soccer team, Synergy, played in the Strikers Cup Tournament in August. Let me just sum it all up...They did AWESOME!! They won all of their games and played so good together. The final game was a nail biter. We were behind with seconds remaining in the game when we scored a goal to tie it up. In over time nobody scored in the first five minutes so we did another five minutes. It was getting physical and our girls were playing so hard. The whole time we were down on their side taking good shots on goal. Finally with seconds remaining in over time, we got a penalty shot and scored with a shot that went right over the heads of the other team. We were all celebrating. I think the parents might have been more excited then the girls. Riley played so well and she is really turning into a good little soccer player. She is getting more physical and has a strong understanding of the game. Way to go Ri. We're so proud.
