Day two update


The girls woke up, had a quick breakfast and went right to the rink for the game vs. the New England Falcons. The Falcons had a full roster of very assertive girls, but the teams were well matched. Our girls hung in and hung in but for the second game in a row a third period goal zapped the mighty 9's energy. The girls had a few chances late in the game but came up just short. They have surrendered nearly the fewest goals in the event, but two losses will make advancing unlikely.

Their small roster and high energy has the girls "the talk of the rinks" every coach has commented that he/she cannot believe how awesome our girls are. Today at the beach a parent from Massachusetts commented, "Oh...you're
that team, we heard about you...nice job."

The rest of the (90 degree and sunny) day was spent at the beach and poolside at the hotel. It is hard to imagine a group of girls could have more fun than this awesome bunch of hockey nuts.
Tomorrow the girls play the Lady Ducks, some plan to attend a Dodgers game while others are undecided about plans.
