Mel & I drove down last night to the fields I've come to know so well over the years for the latest in a long string of Regional Championships. Pike comes into the tournament seeded 6th to vie with 15 other teams for the Mid-Atlantic's two Nationals bids.
We started off the day with a comfortable win over Floodwall and then got set for a re-match of last year's backdoor finals with Los. Los pounded us with deep pulls and aggressive D on our resets and our inexperience on showed. The O gave up a lot of unforced errors and Los' d-team used their athleticism to convert those errors into goals. Although our D team played valliantly, the O couldn't play consistantly enough to keep us in the game. After that, we re-grouped to take out Sectionals Rivals Bearproof from Central PA and finished off the day with a win against our old friends on Medicine Men.
Bloodied a bit from our loss, we were still alive and heading into Sunday play at Regionals.
