That's right sports fan, after a fantastic 5 - 0 start to the winter indoor season, Team Lightning suffer a tough loss in last week's match play. Game 6 pitted the undefeated (and league leading Lightning) against a The Hood - who came into the game with a scant 1-4 record. We started the game off really well. We had decent ball control, lots of passing, and good communication. I was even able to answer Phil's taunts and score a goal around the 5 minute mark (Christy had the assist). Later in the 1st half Christy came up with a...

4 and Oh!

Four game and four wins - that makes for a pretty nice season so far! I know I'm a bit late in giving an update this week... hell, kick off for game 5 is in less than 3 hours. Game 4 - Lighting vs. Panthers It was another great showing by Team Lighting as we overtook the Panthers by a score of 5 to 1. Seeing as it's been nearly a week since the victory I forget exactly who scored, but I think it went something like this: Pete Mike Oster Steve Riley Me (w/ Christy...
