This past weekend Claire's team won the championship in the Kick or Treat Soccer Tournament in Fremont!
They played three games up until the championship game. They won all three and went on to win the championship game. Claire scored a goal in the second and third game. The third game was their toughest overall and could easily have been considered the championship game. It was 0-0 through the first half and most of the second. The girls were fighting hard on each side. With about 10 minutes left, Claire stole the ball and got a breakaway on the right side about mid field. She drove up the right side and took a shot straight into the back of the net over the goalie. The crowd erupted. It was an incredible moment and clearly was the highlight of the tournament. After the game her entire team surrounded her and hugged her.
This was after the third game. Claire carried the team flag across the field. They won the championship game 2-0.
Here they are waiting to get their championship medals.
Some Halloween hair!
