Double Header Madness

We had a double header last night in flag football and won both! We beat the Speed Freaks 31-20 (those 31 points were unanswered) and Shiner Time 33-19. One of the best things about last night was that Mom, Dad, Susie, and Luke all came to cheer us on. And another great thing - Susie brought her nice digital camera and got some great pictures of us playing. Here's a team photo we took between games:

(L-R) Robert, Emily, Misty, Cameron, Andrea, David, Missy, Blake, LiLi, Kayse, Matt, Ashley, Nick, Duncan, Francis & son

I didn't have a particularly great game, but Matt did awesome enough for the both of us. Things were looking kind of grim at the start of our first game, but we were just getting warmed up. After going down 20-0, we scored 31 unanswered points to take the Speed Freaks down. Then we had a quick break (really, not long at all) before heading to the other field to take on Shiner Time (formerly Miller Time, the team who gave us our one win the first game of last season). They kept it pretty even for most of the game but we took it away in the end. One of our new players, David, is insanely fast (he plays soccer) and had some amazing runs last night. And Misty continued her dominance of the females...to think she wasn't going to play offense because she's nice and will do whatever...she had a ton of catches and probably multiple scores (sorry, I don't keep track that well...maybe I should start using the clipboard I have to ask people to track our moves).

It's a good thing we came away from our double header with confidence, because next week we play one of the three "intermediate" teams (as opposed to "rec") - last season they beat us 41-19. But if we just stick to what works and have enough subs again to keep people fresh, I think we can win.
