BE UNITED TAKES SECOND IN CACHE VALLEY CUP

Tyler and his team of U14 boys competed in the Cache Valley Cup this last week.
The tournament started on Wednesday with a tough match against Sport Logan Jr's. The game ended with a tie 1 - 1.
Thursday morning they battled it out with CV Galaxy, the team that beat them out of the finals at Summer Games. We won, 3 - 1!
Later that day, we beat Lightning, 2- 1.
Friday morning we took Fireball 3 - 0 and headed for the finals.
Saturday was the hottest day of the year with temps over 100 degrees. The Finals were held at 2:30 in the afternoon on a dry field in Hyrum. The dead grass made it even hotter.
We faced CV Galaxy again in the finals and ended regulation 2 - 2. That meant another two 10 minute over times in the heat. Score was still 2 - 2 at the end of over time.
We then went into a shoot out. A new experience for our boys. In all our games this is only our second shoot out.
Long story shortened, we lost in the shootout, 5 - 4
The boys played well and did their best. Sometimes it goes your way and sometimes it doesn't. But they know they gave it their best.
