Congrats to Adam Legg on his committment to play soccer at Hendrix University in Conway, Arkansas!

Coach Bilbao has been watching the weather, and has decided to cancel tonight’s practices.  We try to use a standard of around 40 degrees to be outside.  Tonight at training time, it is forecasted to be 32-34 degrees, and a wintry mix.  Hopefully this will be the last of the snow and sleet, and we get back to Spring temperatures starting next week.

Congratulations to the U-19 team who advanced to the Finals in the tournament this past weekend.  After a one-hour delay in start time, a 15-minute lightning delay just before the kickoff, and wind and rain, the championship game was ended because of lightning shortly after starting the second half, with our team down 0-2.  However, a second place finish was just fine, in that we were finally able to get on the road home, ahead of the storms.

Congratulations also to the U-16 and U-17 teams for great play for our first tournament together.

Congratulations to U-19 player Robbie Curtis who made a verbal commitment to play soccer this Fall for Lincoln Memorial University in Harrogate, TN.  LMU has made the Division II NCAA Final 4 for the last 2 years, and took 2^nd place in the NCAA Championship in 07.  Way to go Robbie!

Tonight’s practices are cancelled due to the weather.  Please stay home and enjoy your family.

Coach Bilbao is having a girls’ high school camp this week, which will require us to change our practice times for the U-17 and U-19 teams.  Those two teams will practice with Coach Bilbao outdoors tomorrow, at Harrison Field, from 6:00-7:30.

The U-16 team will practice with Coach Swan indoors at the regular time, 8:30-10:00.

Practice tomorrow for all three teams will be held outside, at Harrison Stadium.

U-17 and U-19 teams:  4:30-6:00

U-16 team:  6:00-7:30

I just learned a few minutes ago that Lakes Country is without power and will be closed tonight.  Therefore, we will have to cancel practice.  Sorry.

Second, if the weather stays as forecasted, Coach Bilbao plans to move practice outside on Thursday.  Please check the hotline after 7:00 Wednesday night. 

The U-16 and U-17 teams will train outside today, at Harrison Stadium, from 5:00-6:30.  The U-19s will have the day off.

All practices for SpringHigh are cancelled today due to weather.  Please stay home and enjoy the evening and snow with your family.  Practices will resume at regular time next Tuesday.
