Opening Day

The boys played their first soccer games of the new season today, although the 102 degree temperatures made it feel more like Summer than Fall.

Lennon was pretty much unstoppable on Chaos, dribbling through multiple defenders and scoring all of the four goals for his team. He has gotten a lot better at controlling the ball and keeping it close.

I was making him drink water constantly whenever he was sitting out, but the heat still clearly got to him- his hands were shaking as he walked off the field.


Lukas also showed a lot of hustle, and I was really proud of him that he didn't back off against a clearly superior and dominating team. 

He can still hold his own versus Lennon at home, so he is going to do OK for himself :)
