Mixed emotions...

Last weekend was full of mixed emotions... My daughter's team lost on Friday night, pretty much negating the rest of the weekend as we did not advance. Some of the teams that did, certainly deserved it, but are not "better" than my daughter's team. Sometimes it's not enough to be good; you have to be a little lucky.

After the loss, the next great debate was what secondary league to play in with the choices being Plano Premier League and Arlington Premier League. It was apparent from the seedings of the LHGCL qualifier that the Plano league teams got preferential seedings over the Arlington league teams, although it was interesting that two-thirds of the Arlington teams that tried, made LHGCL. Our initial plans were to play in Arlington, but because of this and the fact that all the other teams that failed to qualify are playing in Plano, the decision was made to play there. This should offer us the best competition, outside of LHGCL, and the opportunity to gel and get better. Our goal is still to play in LHGCL; we will just have to put that off for a year... Everything happens for a reason. I have to keep telling myself that! :D

As usual, GL&HF!

Go Sting!
