Wow! What a game! This Glendale team is going to surprise some people this season. Having said that I will say that nerves of steel during the game turned to butter when it came to pk’s. The only freshman on the team (whom any college coaches that are aware of at this point in her young career, must be drooling over at the prospect of recruiting), calmly walked up as the first Glendale kicker, and froze the goalie by sending a screamer into the upper corner of the goal. The goalie had to be thinking, at this point, “Yikes, if the rest of them are this good, I’m cooked.” Unfortunately, the promise held during the game, of a team that never quit after being down 1 to nothing early and stayed in it to tie it with two minutes left to play, did not materialize. Three upper classman could not find the goal at all. The difference between champions and those that also ran are made up of such moments as these. Rogers players planted three goals and the only missed shot came off of a crossbar miss. Glendale girls you played admirably, but the game is not over until the game is over. I give an honorable mention to Lindsay Sprouse for her tough, competitive play. And no, I’m not related to any of the players. Wow! what a game!
