Game 1 was a very well played match considering that we are the product of two teams whose players never played together.  We lost 7-6 but played a very strong game.  Yash and Benedict each scored two goals, with another goal from Daniel and Kristopher.  In addition, Nicholas, James and Matt each had one assist, while Kristopher, Yash and Benedict had two assists.  We also saw some great goal tending from Erik, Matt and James, making some very heroic saves.  Other highlights - Nate, Tony, Brian and Erik were awesome on defense, making many great saves!  Paul did a very good job on offense and midfield.  Austin was great on offense, defense and midfield.  Craig did some fantastic ball handling and passes.  Brian made some clutch plays on midfield and defense.  Christopher really hustled tonight protecting our goal.
