BV vs CSCS
On Tuesday the 22nd we played CSCS who was the second best team in the league. We had two extremely important games that week and had to win at least one or both if we wanted to go to state. We were all pretty nervous for the game but were ready to do our best. After our last game against Fountain Valley we were a little concerned that CSCS might play like Fountain. The game started and we did a good job defending them. We had Hannah marking specifically so that was also very helpful. We also did a pretty good job on the offense. Then some time in the first half they broke through all of the defense but Cody. It was 2 v 1 and then to goal against Jalyn. They easily put the ball into the back of the net. It was 0-1. We had to score if we wanted any chance of going to state. At half we discussed the things we were doing well which out numbered the things that needed working on than in most games. We started the second half with 2 goals in mind. Scoring and not letting them score. We played well throughout the half but couldn’t get the ball into the back of the net. Finally with 5 minutes to go Carrie got the ball down to the corner and crossed it. Bailey was there and took the shot. It went right into the net. We were tied 1-1! It was amazing. We were the come back team of the season it seemed. Then the game went into over time and then double over time. In the last 30 seconds of double over time we got a corner kick. Cody sprinted to the end of field and got the ball that had gone out because the ball boy was a little behind. Not to her knowledge however they had stopped the clock for her. She put the ball on the corner caught her breath and raised her left hand. She sent the ball right into the box. It was one of the most perfect corners all season. The ball bounced off Carrie’s stomach and went straight towards Cally’s head. However Cally’s hand was right next to her head and instead of using her head to hit the ball, she hit it in with her hand. We had scored but it didn’t count. The game was over and we had tied 1-1. If we wanted to go to state we had to win on friday, we had to beat TCA.
