Division Champions and Most Awesome Season Ever!

Cucuy FC - Fort Sam Houston FC 5:1 (2:1)

Most wins in a season. Most goals scored in a season. Best goal differential by a landslide. If you're reading this please pause for a moment and pat yourself on the back. Yeah, it's been pretty incredible. If somebody had said we'd be averaging 5 goals a game this season I probably wouldn't have believed it. But the real surprise was: what's Karol doing there at the top of the list? After averaging 2 goals per season over the last two years, something apparently changed. New cleats? Or is it married life? Whatever it is, it's working.

About the game: 5:1 sounds like an easy win but it certainly was not.  Although we had a little more possession, FSH certainly gave us a game and would have scored more than once if it wasn't for our defense and of course Kyle in goal. Kyle although got a bit lucky using up two of his three per-game limit of risky plays in the first half.

Karol was fouled in the box and the ref gave a penalty, but then retracted his decision. Finally Javier put us ahead with a beautiful long shot from the right into the far left corner after a great setup from CNate. Then Cary took a shot from the right that a defender blocked with the hand, and Karol put the resulting penalty away for the 2:0. Shortly before half-time FSH came back with a header after a free-kick that left Kyle no chance.

Second half FSH opened with a lot of pressure, but Karol gave us a break with a free-kick on the right for the 3:1. The keeper had set the wall a little too far to the left, so Karol shot it around on the right side in the bottom right corner.  Following that were a couple of dirty and pretty unnecessary plays from FSH, a kick to the groin comes to my mind, and I hope Scotty is doing better after that knee to the back.  FSH certainly had not given up at this point, but when Todd scored a pretty amazing long distance shot for the 4:1 it was pretty much over. Just before the end Cary laid down the hammer getting the 5:1 after a deflection from a corner. In the end maybe a win a bit too high but in line with the rest of the season.

Goals: Karol (2), Todd, Javier, Cary
MVP: Brent
