92 Javanon Boys

Road to Little Rock--Day 1!!!

The boys arrived here at Little Rock in good spirits & with confidence. I was told their practice at the facility went well & they looked sharp. The temperature here is over 100 degrees & very humid.

The boys were excited about the CJ article about their adventure! The attention given to them is well appreciated by both the players & families. These boys are very fit & conditioned athletes and any attention given to their achievements are well deserved!!!

The core of this team has been together for AT least 4 years, with many playing together longer. The merging of the 92 Thoroughbreds players to this team pretty much set attitude & course for this team. The course has been nothing but a straight line to success. The team has had its bumps in the road but they have handled all adversity sent their way with professionalism, pride & dignity.

The idea that a local team from Louisville is one of six teams left in the nation, playing for the national championship, to me is amazing!!! The adage that "hard work & patience will eventually payoff" is the perfect motto for this team!!!

Terri, Tara, & Karen were busy ironing the players, coaches, & chaperone's shirts, pants, & jackets for tomorrows soccer banquet! Thanks ladies!

A big thanks to Mark for housing, feeding, transporting, & entertaining some of the boys Sunday & Monday!!! Thanks! The boys had a great & eventful stay with you!!!
