I can't even put into words how exciting it's been to have soccer back for both of the boys with real games! As we walked up to the field for Sean's first game, I had goosebumps on my arms. Neither of the boys and neither Scott nor I have complained once about going to practices! I think we all appreciate so much this small slice of normalcy back in our lives, even if masks are required and social distancing on the sidelines.
Sean has a few new players on his team this season since one moved up to play on Plymouth Reign and a few are out because of spring baseball. Their first game was home against Canton. We also had the Pinewood Derby so Sean was only able to play for about 45 minutes of the game. Right as we were getting ready to leave and pull him out, he scored! What a great start to the season and the boys won 8-3!
Sean's second game was a weeknight game out in Brighton. And since it snowed overnight and was hovering around 30 degrees outside, we somehow got lucky and we were able to play in the dome. It was a tough game with only two subs on our side and despite our boys winning the majority of the game, Brighton scored two goals within a few minutes at the end to win 2-1.
Evan's team, coached by Scott, is off to a great start too! They had their first game away in Livonia on a Sunday. The boys looked fantastic about there! They played so well together. Most of the team is returning from the fall of 2019 with the addition of two new players. They won 5-0.
His second game was this past weekend home against Novi. Not only did Grandma and Grandpa come out to see him play, but so did his Uncle Matt, Aunt Mindy and his newborn cousin, Luka. I think they were all good luck charms because Evan scored his first goal of the season and the Avengers won 7-1!
