the USA contingent!

It is pretty awesome to have four friends fly all the way to London from the US to support you!

Go Gauci !!!!!!!

chillin' after the game!

Come on Patrick, give her a hug!

The picture tells the story

Where do I start?
The US and Gliders were pretty much goal for goal for most of the game.
At three quarter time, we were (admittedly) a little complacent.
The fourth quarter was absolute agony for all concerned!
In the end, we won by one point!
The emotion felt by players and spectators alike was significant. There were many tears shed inside (and later outside) the stadium.
As the mum of a player, I congratulate the dedication, hard work and focus of these amazing young people.
I relished the hug Bridie and I shared after the game.
I admire her so much.
