Fall Wrap Up Tournament

The Magic girls played in the Fall Wrap Up Tournament over the weekend. Truth be told, even though they were a travel team playing in a premier team tournament, I'm pretty certain we all expected them to make it to the finals.  They did not.  Emily had a terrific Saturday - she was on fire in the first game and played every second of the game.  She played very well in the second game as well, including a goal, and the girls came away from the first day with two ties and no losses.  On Sunday morning, they were in control of their own destiny - a win would put them in the finals; a loss would knock them out completely.  As a team, they were unable to pull it together (Emily did not play particularly well either) and ended up losing 2-1 in a great game.  It was very odd to be home by 9:30 in the morning on Sunday, with nothing to do for the rest of the day.  Emily has a few outdoor games left, but the indoor season starts this weekend.

Pay no attention to the intense looking (but not intense acting) dad in the background.
