A beautiful spring day found our Dragons facing two tough opponents - the Angry Birds and an angry stomach.
The Angry Birds played tough in the first half, holding us without a goal for the first ten minutes. Once again our offense controlled the tempo, but the shots wouldn't fall.
Emma dominated on defense, playing so well this poor child was afraid to look.
Just before halftime, the Dragons scored twice. It seems we had control of the match.
Until one of our top scorers discovered that the contents of his stomach preferred to be outside rather than inside. As the halftime whistle blew, legions of Dragon fans hoped the team had time to regroup.
The Angry Birds took advantage of our shortened roster to score their first goal at the start of the second half, cutting the lead to 2-1. Luckily, young people have fast recovery times, and our full complement of players was soon back in action.
During the third rotation of the half, all of our scorers were on offense and completely dominated the Birds. In those five minutes, the Dragons scored five times and cruised to a 7-1 victory.
I'll spare you the picture of a bored Emma tending goal. But you can view that and the rest of the photos here.
And no, I don't have any pictures of Ralph and Earl. You're welcome.
