Georgia team #3 this Thursday. Hurst, we're working that out of state schedule

It's tough being up against the border isn't it Dale?

@ Bolden Stadium
Ben Lippen: 2
AC Flora: 1

Goals for Ben Lippen by Carrie Settle - PK in 9th minute, excellent goal in 57th minute. Goal for AC Flora by #6 in 40th minute (didn't get a roster, so I don't have a name...if someone has it let me know).

Great scrimmage and fun to watch. Both teams played hard and gave great effort. The girls all really played with heart. BLS defense was stout and our midfield really controlled the tempo for most of the game. Starting to really move the ball and put some things together. The girls are really coming together as a team and should be proud! AC Flora played a physical and competitive game! Both teams should be looking ahead to good seasons.

The Hanna/Wando scrimmage this morning should be a great one.

Just talked to CJ. Despite the Daytona 500 lingering, he remains focused. I am very, very proud.

Goals scored by JUNIORS, Chloe Urig and Susannah Murray

Thank you to TLH for making the long trip!

Scrimmage was played in four quarters with Wando netting in the 2nd and 4th I'm told. Reports of Wando falling off or any of that talk is vehemently denied by those at the game.

Did Wando and Hanna play 4-20s or 4-25s?

Somebody, CJ, Radio, a Wando supporter, please provide a recap!

It rained but Coach Champ was sympathetic to the distance we had traveled and we played anyway. I thought the field held up great. I won't speak too much for Wando, but I thought their combinations were good. Neither team mounted very many scoring threats (as you would expect in an early scrimmage). My team has a lot to do to get ready for VK. They are in decent shape and we played well in spurts but we need more time together to get our team play moving and generate more offense. I was surprised the speed of play wasn't any quicker for either team but the soggy field may have had a lot to do with that.

The first goal was off of a direct kick just out of the box in the middle. A nice ball was passed to a player that either headed it or volleyed it over my keeper (I can't remember which). The second goal was a left side build that got our defense out of shape for a cross with numbers.

Our best chances were two nice corners by Casey Craft that we couldn't quite put away and a direct kick by Molly Harpe that pegged the upper right corner. I thought that last one was going to go, but it was not to be.

In general both teams did what they were supposed to do...play everybody in lots of positions to see what combinations work best.
