After taking off the fall season last year to work on the River House I returned to the soccer pitch this morning for the opening match of our spring season. I am back with Concord United, which just established an over-62 team now that many players from the over-55 league have become eligible. This is now my 20th year with the team and we got off to a great start winning 4-0. I believe I will be credited with the first goal. I had beaten two defenders and was about to take a close-range shot on goal. The defenseman chasing me could only manage to toe-poke the ball from behind and put it right into the net for me. I finished the game with sore legs and a slight hamstring tweak but should be good to go for next week’s match.
