Evidently the prank
played on Govs by the Brooks students went a little to far this year. The
GIRLS spray painted 20/3 somewhere on the Govs campus. That 20/3 was the
number of yellow cards (20) and the number of goals (3) Govs has scored so far
this year. Dusty was livid as he knew Govs would use that as a rallying
point. Govs came out flying. They did not look like a team that has
not won a game all year. They controlled the game for the first 15
minutes taking the play right to Brooks and forcing Glen to make some early
saves. After that initial period, Brooks started to turn the momentum
back in their favor. Much pressure from the Brooks team, with an
occasional counter by Govs. 0-0 at the half.
The parents were all
worried about this one. The second half started with more pressure from
Brooks. Zach scored his 3rd in 2 games to put Brooks up 1-0. This
goal was followed up by a great strike by Elijah to the top corner. About
3 minutes later, Zach found the back of the net again continuing his scoring
roll. It's clear that the effort is finally paying off with scoring
opportunities that he is able to finish. The last goal, looked like a
very unselfish feed from one of the seniors to one of the reserves. Evan
broke in behind the defender, mad a move and appeared to leave the ball and a
wide open net for Marc to just roll in. After the game we found out the
ball actually slipped off his foot and Marc happened to be in the right place
at the right time. We won't tell anyone though!!
