ODP

The girls lost to Utah yesterday so they did not move on to the semi finals. Anna had a great game. It was fun to watch good soccer again. Watching high school soccer is like poking your eye with a hot needle. There were a lot of college scouts this weekend....Auburn, Duke....I think Anna showed well so that's good. Her speed helps her stand out...you can't teach speed so hopefully someone will be interested in checking her out.

Funny story....college scouts usually stand on the corners of the field and you can tell who they are b/c they are decked out in college gear, have clipboards and take lots of notes. It's kind of an unspoken rule that you aren't supposed to talk to the scouts. My dad, poor clueless little man, started chatting up the Auburn scout the other day. He was telling her about Anna and pointing her out, etc,....She was trying to ignore him, but if you know my dad...he doesn't usually get the hint. He came back all excited and when we told him he wasn't supposed to talk to scouts he said, "oh that's why she wasn't really talking back to me!" Then he was afraid that he ruined Anna's chances to go to college. HA! Oh well....she isn't looking at Auburn anyway.
