Rose and Rosebuds Dominate at the Cascade Cup!!!!
The 2010 Cascade Cup proved to be a great success for both the Rhino Rose and Rosebuds!! Both teams played 5 games in two days and charged through the competition!!! They showed their stuff the entire weekend and turned a number of heads!! All players played with heart, determination, and pride for the blue and orange! Neither team gave up and it showed on the scoreboard! The Rose finished the tournament with silver while the Rosebuds took home the GOLD!
After many tiring, hot training days the Rose arrived in Snohomish ready to dominate. The Rose started off the weekend with a huge win over Puget Sound Select, 12-10!! It was a great victory for the team and they continued to win for the rest of the day beating Snohomish and Seattle! The three wins were a full team effort with goals from many different players and big saves from both goalies! Center draw control, solid D and speedy transitions allowed the Rose to come out on top all day! The three wins on Saturday sent the squad to the Semi finals on Sunday!
The Semi-Final game started off rocky but in the second half the team came alive! They excelled all over the field and went on a scoring spree, blowing Snohomish off the field! Another full team effort sent the team to the Championship game!!!
The final game started off strong, emotions were high and both teams were out to win! PSS got the first goal and continued to find the back of the net. The Rose took some hard hits and finally netted one, but found themselves in a deep hole. The whole team battled back and worked hard to maintain possession. They were unable to erase the goal deficit and fell short in the final game and took 2nd in the the tournament.
The Rosebuds showed up and played hard the entire weekend! They went 5-0! They were unstoppable to the net and shut down teams as they attempted to drive to cage! The whole squad showed incredible power on the field.
