5/26/07 - Sub State Championship - St Albert's -
The day started out just like Thursday when we got rained out, it rained all night and into the morning.  We met for a team breakfast and were really feeling good about the day.  A lot was riding on the line, a win would put us at state and a shot to claim city championship.  We start the game out strong, total domination on their end of the field, but as in the past time after time we would come away empty handed.  Then 20 minutes in, they set up on a corner kick and score.  As if giving up the goal is not enough, we manage to pick up 4 yellow cards in the next 15 minutes of the game and they score two more goals.  Then with 4 minutes left in the half we get our lone goal off some nice combination play Tommy Vonmende and Kyle Larkin.  Tommy gives a perfect through ball pass and Kyle is off to the races.  We go into half time down 3-1.  They get there fourth goal 26 minutes into the second half and it was just too much.  We played hard, played well, and left what we had on the field.  Our Seniors finished on the field today as it was their last high school game they will ever play.  We lose 4-1, wish St Albert's good luck at state, and at least we can say that Council Bluffs will be represented at state this year. 

I want to Thank our seniors one more time for the past four years, congratulate them on their graduation tomorrow, and wish them all good luck in their future as they take the next step in their education journey toward college.  Brett Epperson - Luther, Brandon Duffy - Iowa State, Evan Summy - Iowa State, Cory Jasek, - Iowa State, Adam Larkin - Iowa Western, Riley Landolt - Iowa Western, & Chris Navarrete - Iowa Western.  My the future bring you nothing but happiness and joy.  GOOD LUCK & THANK YOU.

We will be having our year end banquet in two weeks if possible on a Saturday at Pizza King.  We will need to confirm the date with Pizza King and then we will get a hold of everyone with the details.

Thank you to you the parents and the fans that stayed with us this through it all.  It was another interesting year as we had our ups an downs but we managed to hang together and get to the end.  A tough end be it, but all things must have an end in order for there to be a new beginning.
