Dixie Invitational

For the past 4 years we have been going to St. George on Thanksgiving for a soccer tournament. The first year we went with Josh's team. They took second place that year. The next year we went with both Josh and Andy's teams. They both took first place. Last year was a repeat of the year before with both boys winning first place. This year we decided to take Mitch's team(Josh and Andy are going to go to a tournament in Las Vegas in January instead.) Andy and his friend Tanner were asked to play with the team a year older than them since they were going to be there anyway. We had another great showing. Mitch's team tied their first game 2-2, won their second game 3-1 putting them in first place for the semi-finals. Mitch scored the last goal to put then in first place. They won their semi-final game 10-0. The championship game was very intense going into over time and then penalty kicks. Unfortunately they lost in PK's putting them in second place. Still a great job! The team Andy played with did great with 2 wins and one tie. They also had a very intense final game that went into overtime and then penalty kicks. We have never had that happen before. Andy took the first shot and made it. I almost couldn't watch I was so nervous for him. They ended up winning because of a great save Tanner had in goal. Way to go boys!!!!!! What a fun weekend.
