As we get ready to kick off the spring season, let's look back at 2008.
It was a dramatic year, marked by two winning seasons, a tournament appearance, some injuries, some awesome goals, several happy hours, and a first place finish in league play. I thought it was a great year, actually.
Most of our on-field success happened in Spring 2008. We accomplished an undefeated season at 6-0-2 (.1000) and capped a 14-game streak without a loss. The full review of that season is posted here.
Fall 2008 was also a winning season, but a little more down to earth. We experienced some of the up and downs that you can expect in a more competitive division. We finished 4-3-1 (.571) and went 0-1 in the playoffs after a penalty shootout. At the beginning of the season, we started off in a bit of a funk with two losses but picked things up as the season progressed. We rolled into the playoffs on a decent run, winning 4 of our last 6 games and notching one tie. The playoff game was a nail biter. Read about it here.
We experienced some injuries this year too - several players were affected. I am pleased to report that the wounds have healed and we'll be back on the pitch in one piece for 2009. Here's to another big year.
Here are the results from Fall 2008:

Yo, no one commented on the awesome photo. I treated it with some coloring to make it look a little more "historical."
