Not what we wanted.

Well, the season is over. I haven't wanted to post this because I still can't believe it. It's a weird feeling when you wake up the day after your season is over with nothing to do but school.

Last Wednesday, we played OCU in Oklahoma City. Unfortunately, we lost 1-0. It was really sad. I definitely cried, not gonna lie. I didn't cry just because we lost, I cried for my seniors. Abby, Chelsea, and Pearl are not only good friends of mine, but they are also some of the best teammates I ever had. I look up to all of them, and I'm sad that's the way our season ended when they deserved so much more. We put in the work all season, and it's awful how it just ended like that. The whole game was back and forth with us. At half, it was 0-0. Around the 66th minute, they got their goal and held us the rest of the game.

There's nothing left for us to do but start training again for next year. It's a long road until we see the field again, but when we see OCU next year, it's going to be a different story.

Thank you to everyone who supported us this season, especially everyone in the Athletic Department. Also, shout out to Chelsea McMullin, Gianna Piela, and Jordan Beasley for winning awards this season! Proud of you!

Who just beat OBU in the first round of playoffs?

WE DID!!!!

Yesterday proved that we are a team to be worried about. It was the first round of the SAC Conference Tournament. We traveled to OBU in Shawnee. I have never seen this team so excited and pumped for a game before. It was awesome. You could just feel the intensity running through your veins.

The game started, and we came out on fire. Our work rate was high and the effort was there. What sucks is that OBU got 2 goals on us in the first half. They were mistakes that we made, but that didn't stop us. We picked each other up. Melissa Subu got us a goal before half was over. Before second half, we knew we had to pick it up. Jordan Beasley got a header off of Abby Rickner's corner. It was then 2-2! Last time we played OBU, we tied 2-2. We definitely didn't want to go into overtime. With 13 minutes left, Veronica Subu scored! We have a new saying whenever the two Subu sisters score: "They got Subued!" It was awesome.

So now we are in the semis. We play Oklahoma City University at their field at five on Tuesday.

Good luck to the RSU Men's Soccer Team! They play Lubbock Christian on Monday. Go get 'em, boys!!!

The team would like to thank Sara Williams, our Assistant AD for Media Relations, for coming out to watch our game! It means so much that you would take time out of your day to travel to OBU and support us! :)

PLAYOFFS!

I cannot believe that playoffs start tomorrow! It's crazy. I feel like it was just yesterday that I was running by butt off around the track for preseason.

We ended up beating St. Greg's 4-1. It was a tough game. The wind was blowing in different directions. It was hard to keep up. Then we went into a double overtime game against OBU for senior night. We tied 2-2. We really wanted to win for our seniors, but we fought hard for the tie!

So we played John Brown on Tuesday. I still can't believe what happened. The first half was definitely their's. Second half we came back and claimed it. We ended up going into overtime as well. With around 48 seconds left in the second overtime, they scored to win the game. It was shocking. We really thought we held it out, but we made our mistakes that cost us.

So now it's playoff time. We ended up 6-4-1 in conference. That placed us at sixth for the tournament. Tomorrow we play OBU at OBU. It's time to get the win this time! We are excited and ready. If we lose, season is over. We aren't ready for that. Coach says it's all about bringking work rate and effort. That's what we gotta do to win the game!

Congrats to the boys soccer team for beating John Brown in the first round of their playoffs! :)
