Soccer Game

I attended the Greenville College Boy's Soccer game with my friend Jordie File on October, 25 2014. They played Iowa Wesleyan, who was very low on players. 

The game started at 4:00 on a beautiful fall day. The weather was extremely nice and comfortable. It reached 83 degrees that day. I was able to watch the game in a pair of shorts and a T-shirt. To make this game even better the boy's soccer team won 8-0. The game was very fun to watch, I enjoyed the warm and casual atmosphere. I also enjoyed all the excitement when we scored the first goal. The crowed roared and music was played. My high school doesn't have a soccer team and I had never really watched a soccer game, so I had never experienced this kind of excitement before. Because of this whole experience, I was able to learn a lot about the sport.  It was a lot of fun to watch, even though Iowa Wesleyan only had eight players on their whole team verses Greenville's eleven on the field and more on the bench. Despite this, the Iowa Wesleyan team members still came out on the field with good attitudes and made it an entertaining competition. Both teams showed good sportsmanship throughout the entire game. However, the game ended early at 5:45 because of Greenvilles' staggering lead of 8 to nothing. At the end of the game both teams huddled together and prayed as one big group. This was really neat to watch and took sportsmanship to whole new level.
