SC Soccer Forums SCSoccer.com Forums Girls Varsity Soccer Hungry Howies' Invitational hosted by Irmo High School

Hey Hurst --- yes sir, I know you were just pulling the chain and I definitely agree about the Lax team. A GREAT group of girls and athletes. We bicker back and forth about practice space, but actually have a pretty good relationship. A few of them actually hang out in the room with my soccer girls during lunch and one might even go with us on some soccer college visits to try and catch up with the Lax coaches, the same one who helps one of my ACL girls tote her stuff between classes.

There is a player or two we could pull up for a few games to play goalie until Gabby gets back, but I think I am going to try and have the girls pull through all of this as “the team” rather than with a temporary patch to be pealed off latter. I might be crazy or stupid or BOTH- but I think it will help build the team and get us ready for a hopeful playoff “run” and then maybe even more so – next year……

I want to thank Mike, Paul, and the Irmo volunteers for their tireless work to make this a great tournament. We had a fantastic experience and will be back again next year.

I also want to thank Bem Rivers for the breathtaking 3'x5' team poster that we were given for free. It will be given a place of honor at our school.

Oh, and a big thank you to the title sponsor Hungry Howie's Pizza. Friday night was hilarious when the pizza guy brought several pizzas down onto the stadium pitch after our game and my girls were munching away while doing their post-game stretch. I took a picture of them to post on our website.

It was a great weekend and great way to prepare for the stretch run of the season.

Thanks Mike!

Here is a link to Bem's website. You have to scroll down to the bottom to see the Dutch Fork (grrr) and Hanna pictures.

So you, me, and Jimmy Johnson have gone the way of the beard, eh?

Oh, that's Craig in the photo? I thought it was a bear!

after many years of shaving I have learned that if you have a beard you only have to trim it once a week or so. Very convenient.

You could replace Hugh Jackman as Wolverine!

Makes him look more edjukated.
