Parker played his JV game and he played really well. The final score was 9-0. He scored three goals and had an assist. So he did his job.
Then I took him over to the Varsity game.
Garrett scored a goal..............not his job and not normally done with a long pole.
At half time, the score was 14-0. After a few minutes in the third quarter, they put Parker and some of the other JV players in. Parker had a great time.
The coaches loved when Parker had the ball and the other team’s defensemen took his stick (over 6 feet long) and put it between Parker’s legs and lifted. Parker rode the stick like a hobby horse AND kept the ball. A penalty probably should have been called. Parker fell off the hobby horse and rolled around the net and took a shot. He missed, but it was fun to watch.
Then during the last minute of the game, Parker was running with the ball with a defenseman pummeling him with a stick. The d-pole was getting frustrated and started trash talking Parker. The ref heard it and threw his flag. The guy got a one minute personal foul for “Unsportsmanlike Behavior.” One minute in the box. But then, the guy turned to the ref and said, “What? He’s like HALF A MIDGET!” Oops! The ref pulled out a second flag. Sorry! Two minutes in the box. There were only 12 seconds left in the game by then so it didn’t really matter.
But Parker emerged victorious and unscathed. Thanks for your well wishes and prayers!
