Soccer Begins

Yesterday our intramural soccer season began as we had our first game; it was a really close game as it came down to penalty kicks at the end. It was really exciting especially since we scored to tie the game with just 13 seconds left. I really liked how after overtime time we had penalty kicks because I hate ending in a tie. So because we were running low on time we had just 3 kickers from each team, and I was one of the penalty kickers for our team. The goalies did really well as our goalie Texas did not allow a goal during penalty kicks and I was able to be the only one on our team to score, so we pulled out with an exciting win! I hope all the games are like that.

Today I am really tired as I played the soccer game last night and earlier yesterday I played about two and a half hours of basketball. I just have wiffle ball tonight as it's our first game; however, there is barely any running in that so it pretty much be like a day of rest. Other than intramural news, I am just really busy with school work as we have vacation next week as some of our teachers have projects and tests this week so we wont need to worry about it over vacation. I am definitely ready for our spring vacation!

The Champs

So we won our first two games of the intramural basketball playoffs pretty easy, so our team was in the championship. Instead of our usually games in the field house we played the championship in the gym and pulled out with a double digit win. Our team the Sonia's have won four championships in a row now and haven't lost in those four years. If we keep most of our team together we are hoping to make in a 5-peat next year.

Up next for intramural: indoor soccer, wiffleball, and kickball. I am going to do wiffleball and indoor soccer. I am pretty excited; I haven't played soccer in a long time, and I am anxious for it to begin. Other than intramural, school is going well and next week is our last week before spring break. We have one week off than back to school for 3 weeks of classes and finish up with a week of finals and than summer begins! It's crazy that the year is almost over but I am definitely excited for summer.

Back in the Flow

So I've been back from break now for a bit, finally getting back into the groove of things. I had great time over vacation just relaxing and I didn't do to much but I liked it that way. So last week for basketball the boys and girls both had playoff games, the boys had a home playoff game and they were able pull out with a great win and the girls played a awesome game but unfortunately ended up losing in overtime. The girls finished the season really strong and will be looking to carry that towards next year. The boys team a few days later went and played in Farmington but lost in the semifinals, they had a great season and they'll make a big push for the conference title next year.

On Monday my intramural basketball team (the Sonya's) finished the season with a win, capping an undefeated regular season and we will be starting playoffs on Monday. We will have a lot of pressure to win the championship not only because were 8-0 but because the Sonya's have not lost a game in 4 years now!!! I think we are up to the task though so we should be all good. Than on Tuesday I was able to catch a high school allstar game that was played here at Thomas; I had a friend playing in the game and it was great to see her play and catch up with her for a little bit after. Than yesterday my brother Chris stopped by Thomas, so it was great to see him as well.

I am really looking forward to this weekend just to relax, also to catch up on my pool game as I've gotten a little rusty as I've been busy with school work. So I am gonna relax tonight and tomorrow and than hit the books again on Sunday.
