DEA Bedford Masters 2

Nice to start the season with a win, and we've almost made our goal total for the entire last season.

We added Carlos to the defense, and sent Derek up top with Jimmy to provide a little more offensive power. This worked well with Derek racking up a hat trick, although we still don't quite know how that second one got through.

If I miss someone, my apologies, but the best of my recollection, Derek started the scoring in the first half. They came back to tie it up on an unfortunate ball when Joe's cleat caught on the turf. Scott sent in a nice corner for an own goal which ended the first period scoring with us up 2-1. John Guild celebrated his return to the field with a goal, Jimmy got one, Scott got a real one and as mentioned, Derek got a hat trick. Kevin finished off the scoring with a long stretch poke around the goalie for an 8-1 win.

It was a good start to the season, but before we get too cocky, I do have to point out that Derry's record in 2013 was 1-19. It's good to win, but we weren't really tested and need to keep sharp. Looks like we'll have plenty of subs this season, which was an issue more than once last year so we can all run hard and keep making those plays.

Thanks Godfather for scheduling this one first, now let's make it a trend! ____________________________________________________________________________________________
