game 3, summer season

another game, and yet another Minivans victory. this time to the dismay of The Roadrunners, who seem to be almost an entirely new team than the roadrunners team we played last year. different jerseys and everything, and they're mostly old dudes now instead of an actual good young team. unless i just have a terrible memory and its the exact same team as last year, yea that could be the case.

that aside, we went out there expecting a pretty evenly matched game and that wasnt the case at all. although the score might suggest it.
we outplayed them from the first whistle to the last and if it wasnt for some great saves their goalie made it would have been 6 or 7 to 2 instead of 4-2 final score.

lots of good playing from the team as a whole. kells had a dirty goal where he batted the ball out of the air. hackett had a snipe over the goalie's shoulder from like 5 feet in on a play that older brawley helped set up. brawley sr. also goat the first goal for us. i cant remember who got our other goal and the scoresheet guy fucked up on it. i think it was cowin? not sure but if someone knows and reads this let me know.

the two goals they scored were pretty much the only chances they got. muj made a couple huge saves but overall he wasnt too tested in the game. i remember him joking around that he was bored with about 5 minutes to go in the game. one of the goals was a shitty turnover by one of us in our end and the dude just snapped it top corner by muj, the other was a a breakaway on a lead pass to one of the guys that was floating up near our blue line all game. they had a few guys that were cherry picking during the game waiting for lead passes and i tried to yell it out and let guys know when they would do it. kinda of a cheap way of playing but it works so hey. i wouldnt use that strategy though.

overall a good game and another win. 3-0-0 for the season

Shoutouts

- muj is tops in the league right now for goalies. 4 goals allowed over 3 games, pretty good!
- it appears that bugging and harassing Beavan to take shots from the points has actually paid off and he's started to take some shots, and good ones too. its only a matter of time till he snipes and goal off a slapshot from the point
- ross played his heart out again this week. good hustle, he was beating everyone to every race.
- good game by jeremy, he had some good chances.
- good game by stabs, good hustle bud.
- big night by older brawley, 1 G and 2A, solid game. he played his ass off this week also and it was nice to see some good chemistry with his brother. also because thats the line i'm on so it helps me too.
- shoutout to the whole team, good win.
