It’s been a long time since writing about HEdCen football and posting pictures but I’m back. First of all, I’m so proud of our Aspirants girls winning the championship last Nov 17 even without Mary Rose. That just says a lot of good stuff about that team and the players…They really practiced hard. What’s so nice about that win was that as a whole, I think the team deserved it.

Our Midgets B beat CSA 5-0. Rvin scored a hat trick. James and Skie had 1 goal a piece. I heard Skie took complete control of the middle and the defense under Vinz Epino did very well.

Our All Highschool team also won against CSA, 3-1. HEdCen led 1-0 but CSA equalized before the end of the first half. Coach Sugar was frustrated about the boys’ performance. He feels the highschool boys easily get too confident even if they were up by only 1 goal…The boys responded and scored 2 more goals to win.

On Saturday, Midgets B and All HS’s skills and will will be put to a real test when they play Southridge. HEdCen has always beaten Southridge in the 95 division but Southridge will be a complete team on Saturday and I believe they’re just dying to win one over HEdCen. For HEdCen Midgets B, that can’t be taken for granted at all. We have to go all out on this. They’re definitely a much much better team than CSA 95.

Our All HS will play Southridge-GODLUCK boys…hehe…sama ko ba? hindi no, seryoso ako. I know that Southridge team…Believe me, they’re good. And they’ll squash any team unprepared to run and bang bodies with them…So boys, time to run tomorrow and on Thursday. No training on Friday (rest day). Don’t be absent. Do it for the team.

I talked to CJ, a former 40-year old Korean student in HEdCen who made arrangements with me for a friendly match between a Korean school and HEdCen in the highschool level. The game will start at 4PM on Thursday. All HS boys varsity are expected to be in the big field at that time.

Tomorrow, I will discuss our game plan for next week in training since we’ll be having our exams.

I got tired from jogging with the kids yesterday and today. My body is aching all over…need some rest…
