I saw some interesting names on the score sheet.

Where is there a score sheet?

It was three 45 minute periods. Everyone played, but he started the upperclassmen and a couple of freshman. One of the Freshman scored 2. BV scored and HS scored on a set piece. Both teams looked like they were shaking off the rust and the Texas team had a yellow and several fouls called on them. I liked the offensive opportunities we created and one of the freshman (not the goal scorer) was very creative and mature with some of her balls. I think they have a few player combinations up top that will be very effective with more practice and the IQ of the senior 10. The defense hasn't changed much from the machine of last year. Next week will be interesting!

I was following the twitter feed and they mentioned the scorers so not a boxscore/scoresheet per se. They did mention the goal scorers which was my point. I hope that your player had a great first game in the new kit.

Did they change the game time? I originally had it starting at 11am and now it is showing a 4:30pm start time. I will be headed elsewhere at that time but will be able to catch the live stream.

Will probably have beers after either game. 4:30 on a Friday means leaving work a bit early. 11:00 AM on Sunday is too early (for me) to drink beer, besides there may be surf.

Damn straight I care

Big Ups to all local DDs doing their thing with the Big Girls. Big Ups to the parents and their support system as well.

The key that I want to emphasize is that no kid gets there without a whole lot of support. As my mother always told me, it takes a village to raise a kid, well it takes an organization to raise a D1 soccer player.

Always remember that it is a marathon not a sprint. Plenty of opportunity out there but it takes a plan, lots of commitment, sacrifice and hard work to get there. But it can be done!! The time goes fast. Good luck to you and your player.

You know what it was the Virginia Tech game that I am going to be able to make it to. My player has a Sunday evening game so some soccer, beers and lunch before heading there will be good.
 
I was at the scrimmage...1 - o at the break. Score was on a corner, Texas goalie was screened out and got herself tied up, ball was batted around and went in.
Waves started with what I assume TW thinks will be their starting line up. They moved the ball well and dominated ball control.
Waves back line and both keepers looked very composed and well the entire scrimage.
North Texas was very physical, head locks, body slams, yellow cards given for that and holding on to jersey's....crazy stuff.
2nd period new line up and keeper change, the freshmen all looked good. 4- 0 at 90 minutes. Ten freshmen on the roster...?
The three goals were all in the "sweet", nicely done category.
Building passes & then cross through the box and one touch in....another split two defenders and lift the ball over the keepers head and into the side net...
I spoke with TW after the match for twenty minutes or so. He was pleased with the performance, especially the freshmen.
With freshmen you never really know until they get playing time and Texas played hard if not dirty, so it was a good test for the first timers.
Weather in Malibu was .... perfect.
