Sodium secures 2nd place by beating FC...again

The Sodium girls hit the field Saturday with confidence, determination and attitude against neighborhood rivals FC Portland Platinum. For the second time in fall league play the lady warriors pounded a much improved FC club 3-0. Platinum, just coming off an impressive win over LOSC, was just no match for the Sodium firepower.
Katherine Kramer started things off with a first half rocket off the head of a FC defender! First half ended 1-0 with Sodiums relentless pressure beginning to wear the Platinum team down. The second half was domination as the lady warriors had settled into a confident Sodium Style of play that has proved to the downfall of many a team. After a hand ball in the box, MAC Kearney [a member of the feared 180's!] lined up the PK, eyed the keeper as if to plainly say; 'Never' and rocketed the shot passed her for a Sodium 2-0 lead! The FC girls were just no match late in the game as the Sodium conditioning took over. Shot after shot. The pressure proving to be too much to handle. Later in the half, as if to emphasize an earlier blog post about Sodium needing to boost their killer instinct, Emmy Owens would not be denied as she split the defense in route to ripping the back of the net for a 3-0 Sodium win and securing the second place spot in the league bracket.

I know I don't often get a chance to mention everyone in the blog and for those who have gotten little 'ink' I apologize. I am going to try to get photos of everyone posted [with captions] of the last 3 games over the period between now and OPL. Keep looking, your bound to see yourself!

Great job ladies. You had a great fall league and we are all very proud of you!

With heads held high, the loyal Sodium fans yell: GO SODIUM!
