The girls took another victory. This time against Lonestar Red. It is always a rivalry against any Lubbock Teams and the girls really stepped up. They took the first half 5-0 and closed the game with a 13-0 shutout. The girls got to play several positions and were unstoppable.
I am very proud of all the girls.... No one expected them to make a team much less go 5-0 and score 35 points and only allow 2 points in those five games. There is still much work to do and to prepare for a Great Battle with Lonestar Blue which will also be undefeated by the time we play each other in a week and a half. If the girls continue to play hard and continue to work hard at practice they will be hard to BEAT!!
See yall at practice Monday and Thursday.....
Lets go get to 6-0 this sunday and prepare for the big showdown.........

4-0 What a start
We knew Dallas Texans and Alliance were going to be stronger this time and they were. They were both ready for us. They played us hard the first halves but as we have seen all season our girls are hard to beat the second half. We get stronger and faster the second half and that is a great asset to have. Most teams wear out the second half.
First game was against Alliance. They started strong and held us to 2 points the first half. Second half we made some adjustments and scored another four points. They managed to kick a high ball that our keeper managed to catch but her leverage took her a step back and the ref gave them the score. From my angle it looked like our keeper did not cross but that is neither here nor there.... Girls took the win. 6-1.
Second game was very exciting. Dallas Texans kept their strong keeper in the whole game and managed to get a 1-0 lead on us at halftime. We made some adjustments and they strategized not to lose by playing 6 girls deep on defense but we managed to spread the field and attack from both angles thus allowing us to score 4 unanswered points. The girls took the win 4-1.

Great Start 2-0
The girls got off to a great start this weekend! They went out to Midland and played two games. The weather cooperated the first game then the heat came in and slowed us down for the second game.
Dallas Texans put up a fight at first and held us to two points in the first half. The girls got their groove going the second half and won the game 8-0.
Alliance also put up a big fight the first half holding us to a 1-0 lead. The heat was hard on both teams but the girls endurance came through and they took the win 4-0.
It was a great effort from both the offense and the defense! The defense came through with two shutouts..... The offense managed to score 12 points in two games!! Awesome job Arsena!!
We play the same two teams this sunday in our house. I think they will adjust and play a little harder but we will be ready!! See yall at practice........ I am working on a highlight video and will post it by wednesday latest.....

Plano Quarterfinalist
Congrats to LAFC 00 White. The girls played a really tough tournament against some of the best teams in Dallas. They managed to make it to the Quarterfinal playoffs!!
The 1st game against Andromeda 2000 (Plano) was a great start. The girls scored in the first minute of the game and went on to win 5-0.
The 2nd game against Azteca (Kansas) looked like we were going to take a huge win. The girls scored 2pts in the first 4 minutes. Then after a score from our oppenents, it changed the momentum of the game (along with the high humidity from a mid-afternoon game in Dallas). The girls fought hard but were left leaving a 3-5 loss.
The 3rd game was set to be a good one. Dallas Juventus was undefeated and needed to beat us to advance. All we had to do was get a win to secure a place in the playoffs or get a tie and see if we could get in on a wildcard spot. After a fierce battle and missed shots at goal, the girls walked off with a tie and had to check updates from GotSoccer to see if we would advance on a wildcard. With a little luck and lots of help from above, the scores came in (along with the email) notifying us of our next game in the Quarterfinals!
The quarterfinal game was against a top seed in the whole tournament, the Mustangs FC. They were undefeated and ready to battle. After a slow start by our girls, it looked like there was no chance . Then, after a few adjustments, we were able to hold at halftime with a score of 0-2. The second half was a different story, we were able to stay on their end the whole half but only able to score 1 goal, thus leaving with a loss of 1-2.
The Mustangs went on to win the Semifinals and the Championship!!
