This evening I attended the CCHS Men’s Varsity Soccer Banquet where the team and parents celebrated a great season and our state championship. Coach Pavlik recognized each player and spoke at length about their contributions to the team. He described Kyle as giving 100% effort on the field and as having some of the best technical skills on the squad. Kyle was more flattered when his coach described his amazement at Kyle’s moves and how they left opponents dangling (a soccer term of art meaning you totally faked someone out). I was recognized for my photographic contributions and received a small booklet with words of appreciation from all the players and coaches as well as a small key chain camera. The boys are already talking about how strong the team looks for next season and about the possiblity of a state title repeat.
