Anna and the outcome of her Hockey

Anna and the Sport King's did it they won the League championship and they won the Tournament Championship. It was exciting all the way around as the only real competition was from Alaska Flood and Fire who they tied in the first round of the tournament and because it was a double elimination they had to go to a shoot out. They eventually won after the entire team shot once on both sides. Including Anna who brought cheers from both sides as she shocked the entire rink with her slap shot that almost went in. They cruised through until the finals. And guess who they faced again, yup Alaska Flood and Fire, they fell behind 4-0 in the first period and we all started to look around and thought that they would have to have another game. Then Sport Kings started to score and they pushed ahead in the 3rd period with the final score of 6-4. It was the best game that I have EVER been to and we were all horse after. At the banquet the team was presented with Jerseys for being League Champions and Tournament Champions. We bought a couple of tickets and Anna won a Eric Lindros Composite stick that was about 120$ And I won a sport King bottle and tape and Stick Tape and a free Hockey Gear cleaning which every one knows all hockey pads need.The Following are pictures of the League trophy I am going to post more pictures when I get them tomorrow from Andi. I want to say that I am so proud of Anna and she is truly an inspiration to all of us She is a phenomenal women indeed. Going from not knowing how to skate never mind how to play to playing in the championship. She is incredible!

Say to go, Anna!!!! :-)
I am sooooooooo proud of you. That just goes to prove that you can accomplish anything once you put your mind to it.
Do you have any plans to play in the Olympics? You are like the US Hockey team who won against Russia in the Olympics about 20 years ago. They made a movie about it. Once again--congratulations!!!!!

Whooooo hoooooooo, thata girl Anna.

That's some trophy. Did you wrestle off the hockey chick figure on the top and pour Margarita's in it? That's what they do with the Stanley Cup, just sayin'
