Game 7: vs. Mavericks, Sunday 10/12 at 1:40pm

Cougs - last game of season this Sunday. We're playing the Mavericks. They're currently in 3rd place but judging by their record, they're at a similar level to us. We need to take this one to close out the season on a high.

Cougars on the prowl...

Another win for the Cougs!

Last night the Cougs found the resolve necessary to pull of a 1-0 victory against Ocoyucan. Alvaro reappeared like a specter from the shadows to seal the victory with a terrific strike in the first half. Following some nervy moments, we held on for the victory as darkness fell over the pitch.

1 regular season game to go before the playoffs start on 10/19.

Favorite quote for the week:

"I will never think that we won’t win anything but when, sometimes, you feel so good in a game and you play so well and enjoy it so much, even if you haven’t won anything you still feel so good, so free." -- Cesc Fabregas

Cougars Victorious

Another hot Sunday afternoon saw the Cougars emerge victorious!

In a nail-biter, we staked a 1-0 lead in the first half, only to see them battle back to tie in the 2nd. After some nervy moments, Emma sealed the win with her killer instinct in the 2nd. No way they were coming back. Big ups to our defensive players - Ventura, Jacks, and Mike Jr. in goal.

Let's keep the streak alive next game.

New Shirts in White

Let me know if you're in. Once I have a count, I'll find out the cost. Per shirt ~25-$35 but league fees subsidize the purchase and lower the cost.

Nougs - let me know if you want white + black shirts & what number/size.

Women: 3 = Deana - M; 4 = Abby - M; 7 = Emma - M; 12 = Annie - M; 28 = Leslie - M

Men: 1 = Alex - L; 5 = Jake - L; 8 = Sage - L; 9 = Nick; 10 = Graham - M; 11 = Sandwich - XL; 13 = Jacks - XL; 15 = Rich; 16 = Scott - M; 17 = Kevin - M; 22 = Emilio - XL; 33 = Alexis - M; 69 = Trevor - M

Game 4 - Sunday 9/21 - 4:20pm

Sunday's game is vs. Sirk FC.

We've gone up against them a couple of times. Some speed up front and in the middle, weak in the back, and a tall goalie who doesn't cover well on the ground.

Good team to beat.
