FUTBOL: Sevilla contra PHA

So we played our first ¨¨partido de futbol yesterday against our teachers and other students from Sevilla. We played in a beautiful field behind a Lutheran church surrounded by mountains. That should go without saying because we are always surrounded by beautiful mountains and volcanos. Although some of our soccer skills were a bit rusty we were a tough and passionate team. Kevin kept heading the ball and almost headed one right into the goal. Mr Cantu threw himself on the ground a few times trying to protect the goal. And Xaida played the entire game. Ricardo (aka Karlrick) was cheered on by our cheerleaders (Andro, Rachel Charles, and Malease) when he scored a few goals. Despite fighting valiently, we lost 9 to 6. All in all it was a beautiful afternoon and soccer was just what we needed after a long day of teaching and taking classes! --Ms Powell
