Recently Jillian's brother John came back to town for his five-year college reunion. As part of the festivities he took part in an alumni soccer game for former members of the varsity soccer team. Former players who were now in their 40s and 50s were playing, as well as more recent graduates like John so it was quite a sight to behold.
The event itself was fairly entertaining for its slightly-less than collegiate quality in play. Lots of errors, lots of miskicks, and definitely lots of stamina issues. However, after the game, Megan wandered her way onto the field and was THRILLED to play soccer with her uncle.
Just look at her on that field. She's a definite natural. I think she's going to have to work on her size. She's pretty simple to push off the ball and that doesn't bode well. But look at that tenacity. That refusal to give up. I think she's ready for the U4 league this summer.
