Senior Night

Tonight was senior night for the girls soccer team and the last home game of the regular season.  The girls played Lakeland in a close match.  Doug and I remarked several times that this was not the same team that Wawasee beat 7-2 last year.  The ball was back and forth the entire game and Lakeland had a goalie that was one of the best we had seen this year.  Meg played quite a bit at wing and did very well.  Her ability to find the open person and pass the ball to them was outstanding.  She held her position well and was in the right spot to get a rebound shot that sailed beautifully into the goal just out of the reach of the keeper.  Meg's goal would prove to be the only one of the evening for the Bruins which earned them a 1-1 tie with the Lakers.

After the game there was a potluck dinner in the cafeteria for the girls and the families.  It was nice and the girls seemed to really enjoy it.  We don't know a lot of people, but those that we have met have been very nice.  The best part of the evening for me was watching Meg interact with her teammates.  They laughed and shared stories the entire dinner.  We have been thrilled that her transition has gone so smoothly.  Being a part of the soccer team has definitely helped with that.
