It was another blowout on the soccer fields today. The FireHawks (Corwin’s team) won 13-0. I don’t think Corwin scored any of the goals, but he was an active participant. He spent one quarter on goal and actually got to grab and drop kick the ball on one play. Otherwise, he played a combination of midfield and offense.
I think the other team had some coaching issues. When I (a non-soccer person) can look at the field and spot obvious flaws in player position problems, you know something has to be wrong. For example, on a Firehawks free kick right outside the other team’s goal, only a couple of the other team’s people put themselves between the kicker and their goal instead of making a wall between the kicker and the goal. Of course the kicker kicked very hard and the goalie couldn’t get to it in time.
There is another team in Corwin’s league that is also undefeated. This is the team of the anti-Jack. Corwin’s team has encountered the anti-Jack in past seasons and it has always been a very close game. Unfortunately, they are not scheduled to play each other this season. Hopefully, we can get an exhibition game set up. Otherwise, both teams may get a bit too cocky for their own good.
