Soccer Glory

My niece Mary Meyer is a junior at Summit Country Day school. She plays for the soccer team and they are currently making a run in the state tournament. Last week her team won their first district championship since 1998. Today they won the regional championship which puts them in the state semi-finals. Kerry reports this next game is going to be super tough and Mary's team is not favored to win. It may also be important to note that the best player on Mary's team went down with an ACL injury early in the season. Regardless, they have overcome the loss of their star player and have made it to the state of Ohio final 4.

We are planning on attending the game to support our Mary. Go Mary Go!

To my knowledge nobody in the family has ever been this close to a state title. It will be fun to see how this all unfolds.

Oh yeah, another interesting note. Summit Country Day was a big rival of my high school. It seems very weird rooting for them. Kind of like a Bengal fan who suddenly has a personal reason to root for the Steelers.
