Weekly Sports Report

Does Chris look like he just played a football game or ran a cross country race? The answer is the latter... He hit himself in the mouth with a water bottle right before the race started. This is the same tooth that he broke when he was about 8yrs old. The dentist glued it back together, and it’s held for all these years. He had a root canal done on the same tooth last year. We were told then that it would weaken the structure and he would have to have it capped eventually... well, not yet... the dentist wants to wait until he's 18yrs, so he glued it back in again. As for the race, even with the distraction of his missing tooth, he came in 6th for JV, just one position back from scoring… so he’s getting BETTER!

The Gauchos WON A GAME on Tuesday! It’s AMAZING, especially since there are only 11 girls on the team who are not red or gray shirted. I just learned that red shirted means injured for the season and gray shirted is injured with a chance of playing again. They lost again on Friday, but that’s not unexpected against 1st place Santiago Canyon. Cheryl said she had to play center defender and that she was amazing! Parents, trainers, and the coach’s mother seeked her out to tell her what a GREAT job she did.

Quakes win again! They were scored on again, so that makes two goals against them (a wet ball slipped between the goalie’s legs). BUT the Quakes are still undefeated! The head coach is going in for knee surgery soon and that will put Cheryl in the head coach position. Hopefully Coach Cheryl can keep up the undefeated streak!
