Day 2
Up first we faced Devonshire Colts at BFA Field and it was HOT! Colts played us hard and we had chances to go up but didn't take them. I managed to take us ahead when Rye put a cross in and I tapped it in passed the diving goalie. It was still very close and Colts pressed us until Rye ran down the right side to shoot past the rushing goalie. When the final whistle blew we knew we had just finished a real battle.
With that win we were through to the quarter finals and so our next match against Devonshire Cougars allowed Coach Thompson to rest a few of the players. Cougars played very well and we were having trouble scoring. At half time the score was still nil, nil and then Coach Thompson put me on. Travis made a run and I saw him and sent him thru for him to give us the goal we needed. The game ended 1 nil to B.A.A.
Who should we face in the quarter finals, but Dandy Town. They were bigger and stronger than us, but we stuck to our game plan, which is to play our style. Before they could use their size and strength Knory scored our first goal and then I knocked in the second. Right after, Enrique made it 3 nil. Dandy Town did manage to score late into the match, but it was not enough. The win meant we would face the team that beat us in the finals last year, Hamiton Parish Hot Peppers!
