End of season for the Heatwave!

Deacon and Cavin both finished of their Heatwave soccer seasons strong. Both boys did well in the tournament and made it to the championship game. 

Cavins team was seeded lower, but did well. He had to play goalie for all the Saturday games because their goalie is not good, but he did a great job. He scored two goals in the first tournament game that led them to the games on Saturday. He played goalie from then on out and had to be the goalie during the shootout as the game was tied. He scored his goal and then stopped enough for him to win the championship. It was fun to watch and I was proud of him! He came into a team he didn't know anyone and ended up being the captain and leading them to victory! He has a really strong leg and really just wanted to play for fun instead of all the pressure of the high school team. 

Deacons team was seeded # 1 of 10 teams and they played well. The championship game had some iffy calls and so they also ended in a tie and had to do a shootout. Unfortunately, we are not as lucky in shootouts and even though Deacon made his shot, they ended up coming in 2nd place. He was a little sad as they definitely should have won, but I think he still really had a good season. 

Ragnar has been coaching him for a while and Deacon really loves having his dad be his coach! 
They had a great group boys on the team. I am grateful for their positive experiences and I really love watching them play soccer each week!
