For the second year in a row I have put together an intramural soccer team, composed of really great soccer players mostly from our ward--hence we are the LANAIhilators. Last year our team was great, and thus I had to do round dos of the team this year. We also made team shirts last year and a bunch of people from the ward bought them, and so this year again I organized our team shirts and we sold a ton. Our team is basically the same as last year plus a few new Lanaians. And seriously we are so good! We went undefeated in regular season and totally blew out all the other teams. Basically everyone on our team are all stars. Last week we had our first game of the playoffs and it was the most intense game ever! We had probably like 20 people from the ward come to support--all sporting their Lanaihilator shirts. For the majority of the game we were down 2-1 and when we scored to tie our crowed cheered so loud which was pretty awesome. We then went into 5 min over time of golden goal (whoever scores first, wins), after no goal we went into a shoot out. We were down one shot with one shot left to go--our best player of course made his shot and so we were all tied again. We then continued shooting until we had a winner. The other team missed their first shot and we made ours, so we won! The shoot out was so intense I was literally either covering my eyes or rolling on the floor the entire time. Our next game is on saturday and we are supposedly playing one of the best teams, but hopefully we will Lanaihilate them!!
