Well it is finally over. Our delay last night was just too much to overcome and it left our girls frustrated and flat today as we took the field against Culver. We had lost to Culver earlier in the year, and though we gave it our all, in the end the Eagles were victorious. They went on later in the day to beat Park Tudor for the State Title too.

We played a second game for 3rd or 4th place, but with the rain from last night it meant we had to play it back to back with the Culver loss. And considering it was against Zionsville, the team which was unbeaten in Indiana until we played them last week, there was no way they were going easy on us! The Final Four is not for the faint hearted!! Zionsville took their revenge upon us.

But for a team that was not ever expected to be there, we held our heads high. It was a great honor. Three of our players were elected to second team All State, Stephanie Tirman, Alyssa Jarvis, and Bobbi Mills. And all three of them were elected to the Tournament Team as well, meaning that they were among the best of the Final Four. It was quite an honor for a team just beginning to make our mark.

Six seniors played their last game with us today, and they will be sorely missed….including our goalie. But we have a strong team coming up, and we just may be there again next year.

As for me, it has been such a privilege to coach such a fine group of girls. We are adding three Assistant Coaches for the next season, so watch out Indiana. We are not done wit you yet!

Fourth in Indiana…..not bad!

Goodnight my friends and God Bless. I need some sleep for sure!!
