No longer flying under the radar
Game three on the week had the Golden Bears visiting last seasons Sunset League Champions the Huntington Beach Oilers. What a game it was, the game was akin to two heavy weight boxers exchanging punch for punch. We matched if not bettered the athletic play that Huntington is known for most of the day. In a short three minute period closing out the first half we let the first of three goals sneak in. Followed by two quick hitting goals while we were recovering from the initial shock. We were treated to Shock and Awe HB style. We battled back and played hard but couldn't get our shots into the goal. After the game I talked with the HB coach and she was amazed at how well our girls played. This game we shot across the bow of the Mighty HB Battleship, next game we look to make the direct hit. While the W/L didn't fall in our favor, we learned and now know we can compete with the best the League has to offer.
