Justice
Brianna's team finally won a regular season game. Hooray!
So many games they have been "robbed". Well, maybe not robbed - coming so close and yet not winning. Monday night was another one of THOSE games. We played a team and were taking turns with them scoring. It was tied up when the first of the lightening hit the sky. The ref called the game right after the other team scored putting them ahead by 1 goal. Yes, the safety of the girls is the most important thing - but that sort of loss is the way our luck has been going.
Tonight our girls won. Not only was it great that the bad luck string seemed to be broken, but it felt like justice for another reason. The last time we played this team we tied. One of their parents made racial slurrs against 1 of our players. It makes me both mad and sad at the same time that there are still people like this in the world. Winning made it feel like justice had been served.
