This weekend we took a road trip to play in the Minnesota Classic. Our first game was against Iowa State on Friday. They were a big, physical team but our skill eventually dominated. Apple scored in the first half off a free kick right outside the box. She blasted it right past the wall and goalie for us to take a 1-0 lead. We came out in the second half and really took it to Iowa State and then Mocha (Kelly) gave us the insurance goal off a great cross from Apple. Apple took the ball end line and crossed it and Mocha headed the ball home. We won 2-0 and were off to a great start on the weekend!
Saturday the team went to Mall of America and it was HUGE! Vienna and I walked around and we are pretty sure we counted about five footlockers. We wanted to go on a roller coaster but didn’t feel like paying $20 for one ride……college budget. Then we went to the Holbert’s house for Dinner! Thanks so much to all the parents for all the great food!!!!
Our final game of the weekend was against Minnesota and we knew this was gonna be a hard battle. It sure was, there was a great crowd and the game was extremely exciting. The first half we got pinned back in our half for a little while because Minnesota was high pressuring all over the field. Minnesota was very athletic and ran at us all game but we kept calm. Finally in the 76th minute off a free kick from kiki and which Apple headed into the top left corner.
