Last soccer game of the season. Kids played great again but our team was overmatched against an unbeaten team and lost 5-1. Kostas scored the only goal. It was a gorgeous day and everyone enjoyed the games, will do it again in the spring!

Valawras or Rolando?

with the coaches:

Dad took Kostas to Saline to watch the Division 1 District Final between Saline and Ann Arbor Huron. Huron beat Saline 3-1 and won its first District title ever. Dad's friend's son Ike Odum plays for Huron and had the goal winner...the kid has been in a zone in the past four games with at least one or two goals in every game. They play Tuesday at 5pm in Novi in a Regional game and I wish we could make it...we'll see:
