Final numbers
We lost the semi-final 2-1, and a missed PK and a struck crossbar didn't help. The last half was thrilling, though, with Aidan out of the net for most of the last 5 minutes and only a defender on the half line, but couldn't break through.
As noted in my previous post about the team, I'm donating to a charity based on wins, shutouts, and goals scored. The total, after $50 from the PK competition win and $7 from fines on the boys, was $250 even. The boys took a vote at the end of the last game and the money will be going to Right to Play, a worthy international organization to help kids learn what it's like to be kids.
Anyhow, here are some of the numbers from the season, including preseason and tournament games:
Won 21
Lost 7
Shutouts 8
Shutout by other teams 2
Goals for 109
Goals against 38
12 of 14 boys scored at least once, and three, maybe four scored their first goals ever. The leader finished with 25 goals, followed closely by another boy with 23. Aidan, our main keeper, scored 8. A successful season!
