Congratulations to Coach Sean Esker and the Skippers. Ironically, three of the Mandy girls will call Lafayette home next year as they will play for the Cajuns at ULL. On to Mt. Carmal for the Manuel and Sheehan gang.

Well last night we got half of what we expected.
What we didn't expect was rain moving left to right just like on the weather channel during hurricane season. We all expect soccer season to be cold and rainy, but this was more than that. I really felt bad for both teams to have to play this way. But they managed to play some pretty good soccer nonetheless and the fans were all able to keep their umbrellas from turning inside out.
What we did expect was a good soccer game. Lafayette had the wind in the first half (15-20 mph) with no rain yet and could only muster 1 goal after having some good scoring chances. If I remember correctly it started to rain just before halftime. But to start the second half the wind increased and the rain began going sideways. Horrible conditions for those outside. ( I was in the press box, dry) The skippers managed to take advantage of the wind and applied pressure and was able to put 2 goals in the back of the net. It was a very entertaining game from a spectators point of view, but from a Laf supporter it was tough to hear the whistle sound in the 80th minute.
To Mandy GOOD game, Congratulations & good luck.
To the Lafayette girls, this was suppose to be a rebuilding year after the departure of the 12 seniors last year, but you made believers out of us all and made a great run. Great job. With everyone returning and the incoming freshman we are expecting, next year we should be poised for another run. Keep your heads up you had a great season, 21-2-4 is not a bad year.
And to Sean, let me know what date you have open for a return trip, we'll get it scheduled. HA! HA!
