This weekend Derrick and I traveled with our high school team to our first tournament in Charlotte. The weather was amazing, the competition was fierce, and we survived! Three goals of the weekend met. I'm not going to lie, Derrick and I were a little nervous about being accountable for 17 high schoolers but, as always, our guys proved we had nothing to worry about. They woke up easily, were at the fields on time, and kept great spirit through the whole weekend.
We ended up playing three very competitive teams on Saturday. We weren't able to pull off a win but we got better with every game. The weather was unbelievable, the games were tough, and dinner was well deserved.
It's hard to find some place that will take 20 people with no wait but we managed to find a delicious little hole in the wall.
Captains Daniel and Ramsey. Just missing Alex.
This Daniel ordered a large pizza....for just him!
Sunday we were all exhausted from a long Saturday and we had daylight savings times to contend with, but they came out strong and had their first tournament win on Sunday morning. Derrick and I were so proud and I had so many goosebumps.
We had some awesome parents tag along and one sent me this picture of their olive garden stop on the way home.
This is such a great group of guys. Derrick and I feel like we got really lucky with this group. We're excited to watch them grow and improve through the rest of the season.
