Soccer with the Bearcats

So I am at work one day and my friend Jamie says, "Hey you've played soccer, wanna come play in the corporate games?" I told her I probably could. But although I had played for six years, I haven't played for ten+. So the day came that I was supposed to play and I was still going back and forth about it. So I texted her and I made myself a deal, if she texts me back I will go, if she doesn't I wont. So it was about 2:30 and I was supposed to play at 6, still no text. So I was pretty sure I wasn't going to go. I had made all these reasons why not to go. Then I got a text back. So I was going to go then. I am glad I went because the team has to have three girls on the field at all times and there were only four girls that showed up. Not to mention Jamie had a hurt ankle, but still played both games, the whole time, she rocks! It pretty much came back to me. I started getting better and better as the night progressed. It was really fun! So now I am planning on going to all the games. I had forgotten how much I enjoy the sport. I hope to play a little better in our next game. We had to play two games. One of the girls left shortly after the second game started, so that meant the other three of us had to step up our game. We won both games, the first against 1800 Contacts and the second against ARUP. I don't know who we play this week, either EBay or some other company, whomever won out of their game. The second game was tough, they were good. We went to sudden death and we just happen to have a rock star keeper. Wish us luck with our next game, this Friday, Go Bearcats!

Soccer Huh, that would be fun to do, I wish I could be more involved, but is so hard being this far away.... When I come in we should try and go to lunch sometime!
