Hornets do it again!

Oh my goodness people. We are on mother lovin' fire!! We did it again. 1st game... outstanding. 4-0 our favor, total sweep... we earned 10 points (maximum allowed) towards the seeding. It works like this: 6 pts for the win, 1 more pt for a "shut-out" (that's when they don't score at all), 1 additional point for each goal scored over them up to 3 goals. So with a 4-0 win, we earned 10 pts! The hard part about all this is that once we are up by 4, they want us to slow down and not score anymore. It's to prevent teams from running up the score and it's good sportsmanship but when your boys are playing well it's really difficult to tell them not to score. Especially when it's a chance for a player who hasn't scored yet to get a goal for the 1st time. Anyway, we won the 1st game easily and it was beautiful.
Second game, a little different. We won but it kinda was wierd and almost a loss. We played Fillmore's #3 team and they were way better than I had been told (don't trust the Santa Barbara asst. coach for future reference...). These guys were fast and scored on us right away. They got a lot of fouls and played really rough. One of their players got a kick to the face (accidently) and their coach had a fit because the Ref didn't see it. Well he yelled at the Ref really badly and pissed him off. Nice, thanks a lot dude. Not a way to coach, it never works out well when you do that. So, what ended up happening is we were tied at half time. Then we scored in the 3rd quarter. I had pulled one of my #1 players and my son for the 3rd quarter with plans to put them back in for the 4th and have them rally for another goal or 2. Not so lucky, the Ref was so distracted from the Fillmore coach yelling at him that he forgot to call in the fourth quarter subs so we played the whole second half with the same players and no subs. Didn't bother me, we won but Fillmore "yells-a-lot" was sooo mad. The poor little Ref. He's all "Ref error, sorry, call stands" (that means we won no matter what). Holy moly, that was a lucky break and a happy moment. I mean I think we still would have won but maybe he pulled his best guy 3rd quarter too and that's why he was so mad. Anyway, we are doing well and I am happy to it. We earned 7 points for the second game and now everything rides on tomorrow. A 3-0 win would seal the deal and put us in the quarter finals next weekend then to win that and the semi's and... dare I say it... The Finals... then we would be Area W champs... that's huge. We need to play smart and think positive. These kids from these other cities, they are good. We need to be better. I can't wait for tomorrow. Say your prayers and cross your fingers. We need this win!
Thanks for reading, I will post the results tomorrow.
