Another Good Hockey Weekend
I went to St. Louis to play hockey again this weekend. I had two games on saturday, and one on sunday. They were all pretty good games, but we lost all three. We have this problem where the team can't afford practice time and everyone is too lazy to work out, so we're all out of shape. We die about half way through most games. We played Truman for the first game, and got the first goal. By the end of the second period it was tied 2-2. The final score was 5-2. Dad was in town for National Guard this weekend so him, Keith, Nicki, Jake, and some of Jake's friends all came to the saturday night game. We lost pretty bad, but at least I got a penalty for tripping someone. I got a couple of shots on goal, too.
The last game, on sunday, was the best. I had a breakaway and should have gotten a goal. I hit the crossbar and the puck bounced down. Everyone said it went in, but the ref didn't count it. Oh, well. I played on the line with the new kid (newer than me) and we seemed to play pretty well together. The next (and last games) are the first weekend of March. We're playing the Illini, which I'm pretty excited about.
On Sunday I went and hung out with Keith and Nicki and got to see their new place. They've set a date..sometime in September.. so that's pretty exciting. We grilled some chicken and watched a bunch of Metalocalypse, which is a great show. I drove back to Rolla this morning and now it's back to work and school.
