Loch Lomond U13 Boys Champions Takoma Park Fusion and runner up Shetland. The boys kept their best performance of the tournament for the final, winning 6-1. John notched another hat trick with three one on ones against the keeper. Jack and Sam tallied goals with two and one respectively. Rangers scored a late consolation goal but were deflated.
The Fusion's last game, a friendly, was played this evening against Livingston. The boys were exhausted from celebrating late into the night at the player farewell disco so they were flat (incriminating karaoke photos will surface soon). They still held their own, dominating the second 25 minute quarter, going up 1-0 with four shots on goal. Livingston came back in the third quarter to win 2-1. Everyone was pleased with their performance. Unfortunately, we forgot to get a photo with the opposing team.
I'll continue to post entries, fleshing out some of the games, talking about some of the trips and other stories from the week. There are just too many to put up in such a short time.
I can speak for all the chaperones when I say it has been a pleasure getting to know the boys. They were terrific and represented the US well. Ask them about the boys from Shetland, what the food was like (did they try the haggis at lunch?), or does Subway in Scotland taste the same as in the States? They'll come home with some dirty laundry but we had to choose between that and Stirling Castle and the Sports Direct store. In other words, there was no contest. Shopping for football duds was their favorite activity.
They will be happy to see your smiling faces at BWI Tuesday evening!
