Bleurgh I'll write more later.

If we win, we take second place. We were playing River Falls away, and although they aren't a very good team, they have a reputation to cause upsets when they play at home. Played most of the game and the entire second half, so the final ten minutes reminded me a lot of a long-distance race. Thighs were very tired. First half was 1-0, but they scored a few minutes after the start of the second half. It was partially my fault, I tried to head down a long kick but I didn't just high enough, it skimmed my head and went past our last defender. They had a fast forward and he scored.

We scored two more goals, so we got the win and guaranteed second place. The next game on Thursday decides what seed we get for sectionals. If we win, we have a good chance for second seed, which gets us two home games. Losing could drop us down to fifth seed, which is no home games. Big difference there, these games can be three hours away.

Eau Claire Memorial had a shocking loss on Tuesday, ending their undefeated streak, which could risk their first seed position. We have a game this Saturday that is pivotal going forward against Wausau West. Basically, they've asked us to win at all costs. If we win, Memorial gets first, and we get second. If we lose, Memorial could get second and we could land who knows where. It's a big game. Things are really getting down to the wire.
