Cinquo de Mayo Tournament

No game for three weeks and then three games in one day. Sure glad Karol invited a couple of extras to help us out. The first game against SASA SA Elite started out great: Schluni scored the first goal, but in second half we gave up three. The second game we played HFA Gold Diggers beating them 2:0. Jimbo scored the first goal followed by the goal of the day, a header by Ben after a cross from Karol. To advance we simply had to beat SASA Fort Sam in the third game. That turned out to be harder than expected. Looks like the guys from Fort Sam really do some running in their spare time. In the end there was not much to win in this one and we lost 3:0. Karl in goal prevented worse.

Cory put together some highlights of the affair available here:

Check it out if you want to see the talking football boot, Ivan's erasing tackle, or Nick getting de-cleated by Brittney Spears.

Although we did not advance I had a great time, thanks to Karol's organizing, Cory's T-shirt printing, January's sandwiches, and Alex' homemade granola. We should definitely do this again next year.
