Soccer - James

James had a soccer game tonight - rescheduled from a game cancelled due to weather or something. Tonight's weather wasn't great either, though! LOL

Weather report - cool, overcast, rain in the second and third quarters, then very chilly

James was out the first quarter, played solid defense the 2nd/3rd quarters (yes, in the rain), and was forward the last quarter. We played the other team from our town, so the kids all know each other and they are very evenly matched! The score? 0-0! LOL No one scored!

James played well. As I said, very solid defensive player. In one spectacular play that even had David ooh-ing when he saw the video, James brought the ball up from the center of the field all the way to the left of the goal, evaded several opponents, retained possession of the ball, and then passed the ball RIGHT in front of the goal. It would have been a perfect assist if his teammate had been ready.

Ah well. I do have that video, but I don't want to take the time to edit it tonight. But here are some photos.
