We played an AWESOME Game 1!! Everyone did their best and we held off team 1 in a scoreless tie! Everyone really hustled well. We looked for opportunities and passed very well. We played some good defense and we also did a great job over last season with our dribbling and ball handling. Tyler B really improved and contributed well to the defense. Nick had a shot on goal and saved a goal. Robert was great on offense, defense and goal. Joey and Josh really worked hard and kept the ball in scoring position. Tyler S. was phenomenal in his defense and ball handling. Brian was a 'laser beam' in his defense. Evan worked very hard and played well. Angelo was very improved also. He did a great job on defense and offense. Austin really showed a lot of poise and was much improved over last year. Tony really hustled and played a great game.
Congratulations Orange Rockets!!
