Game 7 was a tough game. We didn't score any goals, but we played a very good game. Joey had a difficult time with the hard hitting Pythons who wasted no time on keying on him. He did well handling the ball and setting up scoring opportunities. Robert played an excellent game as goalie and defense. Evan played his best game ever stopping many shots. Austin was on his toes in offense and defense. Angelo played a great game on offense, nearly scoring two goals! Brian was very aggressive and focused on defense. Nicholas nearly scored two goals and played a solid defensive game. Tyler S. was really great today, staying on top of the ball and controlling the offense. Josh was great, setting up many scoring opportunities. Ameya was very aggressive in defense and in goal. Tony made some great saves on defense. Nice game team!
