League Champions

My soccer team played to a scoreless tie in the Division 1, Over-56 League championship match played this morning shortly after last night’s torrential rains subsided.  We went on to win the title in a penalty kick shootout which ended 6-5 in our favor. Our opponent, Juventus, a mostly Brazilian and Argentinian side, gave us a run for our money in the extremely close contest. I was injury free and played well nearly earning an assist off a flicked on header that landed at the edge of the 6 yard box on the foot of a teammate. This is my 15th year playing soccer for Concord United and only the third time we have won the league championship despite many trips to the finals. We finished the season with an undefeated record of 11-0-1 with a total of 28 goals for and 5 against.
