Well, as you might have guessed since I didn't post last night, Elizabeth's team did not win the tournament. Unfortunately, the championship game ended in a 1-1 tie after 70 minutes of regulation play and 20 additional overtime minutes. They lost in a penalty kick shootout 3-1. It was disappointing, but they played well and the girls held their heads high.
At the awards ceremony each coach gives a "Player of the Game" award to a member of the opposing team. Elizabeth received this award. The coaches and the players said, "We talked about you and had no answer for you." She was honored and so were John and I.
Drive home was lengthy. Because of the overtime, etc. we didn't leave Dayton until 6:45 pm and faced a 4 1/2 hour drive home. Fortunately, we headed west to Indy and then took the familiar route north in the dark (and tons of wind). Going to bed early tonight!
