Your Captain joined his university's local alumni soccer team, and we've had a great season. Of course, it's not due to me - I've been out for half the games!We play 7-on-7, mostly on the bumpy grass at Hains Point. The league is organized by the Capital Alumni Network, which is quite a social juggernaut. It's a very collegial (or should I say collegiate?) atmosphere and good for ball skills cause you have to play dynamically on such a small field. The goals are short so finishing is important.
We entered the playoffs as the #3 seed. We have a semi-final match at 9:00 a.m. versus NC State on Saturday at the RFK Auxillary fields, which I've heard are quite nice. If we win, we'll play in the final match later that morning. Shoulder to shoulder, we will fight, fight, fight, fight fight! (that's really long when you write it out). Go CU!
By the way, CU folks, take note that the Douglas Bridge is now closed. That's the bridge that spans the Anacostia near South Capitol/new baseball stadium. We'll have to and from RFK a different way.
