Soccer Aunt





Hey Soccer Fans!
Imagine sitting for a couple of hours in the nice autumn sunshine watching a soccer match. Today was the big game between Skyline and Murray. As a Skyline alum, you may wonder why I wore orange and black to the game. I happen to be the Aunt of the captain of the Murray High Women's Soccer Team. That would be Rosie Gochnour. Murray just moved up to 5A this year, so playing powerhouse Skyline is a big deal. The first time they played, last month, ended in a double-overtime 0-0 tie. Today's game also went to over time, but this time Skyline scored first with the "Golden Goal" and won the game. Still it was an exciting event.
It was also their last home game so the Seniors were honored. They high-fived their teammates and were presented flowers and a necklace by their parents. Oh and by the way, it was Rosie's penalty kick that resulted in the goal that pushed the game into overtime. Watch out for state playoffs next week.
