Another good showing by team Lightning tonight. We rolled to a 3-0 record with a 5-0 shutout over K.O.A. I didn't have any goals nor assists tonight, but I did have to leave the field due to injury... twice.
In the first period my teammate (Steve Riley) had a line drive shot on goal that I blocked with my... umm... nether regions. Ouch! A little rest and Gatorade on the sideline and I was good as new.
During the second period I was down in the corner, scrapping for the ball when an opposing player took a powerful swing at the ball. He missed and made solid contact with my ankle. The same ankle that I tore up during the summer out door season. Not to worry - after it swelled up a little bit and the adrenaline kicked in and I was back on the field.
Anyhow, congrats to the team. We played well tonight!
Oh, and I managed to snap a few pics from the sideline - but I forgot to have Carli grab some shots while I was on the field. One of these days we'll remember to get some. Until then, enjoy!

By the way... if anyone from the team is reading this, who did score tonight?
