Sunday had an airy feeling about it, rain was stopping and it was getting warmer. Driving up to the field the fog was waist deep and the Skidmore team was out stretching. Parents were nervous, but not the girls they came down from the locker room later than usual, you could hear them first and then see the smiles and confidence. Right from the start you knew this was going to be a game. Our defense and goalie got a true test in the first half. Skidmore would get on the board first in just under 7 minutes into the game. Then with 20:41 left in the half they would add another and make it 2-0. It would remain a battle in our end for the rest of the half with Blue holding back the tide and doing a great job.
Our girls have been here before, down 2-0 and have been a great second half team so far this year. This would be no exception as they played their hearts out and had many chances right from the start. We could only muster one lone goal in this 2-1 loss against the Thoroughbreds
