The Varsity team finished in 9th place out of 10 teams at the York tournament and had a disappointing overall day.  Alexander started off the day with a 1-0 win over York thanks to Julia stealing a ball from the goalie and scoring with under 3 minutes left.  That would be the highlight of the day for Alexander.  Honeoye scored a goal with 90 seconds left to win 1-0 the 2nd game.  Alexander would then get beaten badly by Albion as Albion scored their first goal in less than 10 seconds and never looked back.  Stacey got a goal on a direct kick, but Albion won 3-1 and if Leslie hadn't made a couple diving stops it would have been 6-1.  The last game Alexander was already out of the playoffs but just to make the day worse Canisteo put a 2-0 score on Alexander to end their day 1-3.  Leslie had a great day in net despite the 3 losses with 40 saves and many times looked like she was in a firing range but was making diving, sliding, crawling, basically any kind of save she could to limit the other teams goals.

It was a disappointing day for Alexander, but hopefully a learning one.  It doesn't matter how good you think you are, it only matters how good you actually play.  We still have a lot of tournaments left, lets keep working to improve.
