girls ROCK!

that girl right in the middle with a big grinning hollar is my niece Jess..... she and her teammates clinched the state high school girls Div II title last night .... she had 7 goals in 4 games, 4 of the goals and one assist in the game before last night, and then a goal and an assist on the game winning overtime goal last night to seal the deal. my girl got MVP of the playoffs, and celebrated like a champ!

she is the classiest kid too. check this out - the college where they played the games gave her the game puck and told her she rocked, and she placed the puck in the middle of the lockeroom floor and told her team that it wasn't her puck, it was the TEAM puck. coach took it and will cut it into 19 pieces for the entire team to have as memorabilia. awesome.

the coolest thing, too? she is a FRESHMAN in high school. she still has three more years to keep on keepin' on.

i am, WE are, SO SO Proud!!!

Jess, you rock, girl!!!!!

Wow. What a cool chick! What a strong (don't exactly mean that literally, though I'm sure that applies, too) chick, too. I'm impressed!
