This Kid ROCKS!


Tonight was Tyler's first Lightning game of the season against the Jr. Grizzlies. It was a much more enjoyable game than his county game. All the boys played so well. They started out great, confident and smooth. They worked together, and even passed to each other.

They got a goal right off, and then just continued to slide them in after that.

By the third period the Grizzlies came back from losing 4-1 to 4-5. We were down one point and only 3 minutes left in the game. It was very intense, you could see the boys were fighting for it, they wanted the win. All of the sudden, Tyler gets the puck and goes for it. HE TOTALLY SCORED to tie the game 5-5. They couldn't pull another one out for the win, but we'll take the tie.

I am so proud of these boys, they played great! Their next game is on the 20th for those of you wanting to see Tyler and his team in action.

wow. good for tyler!

even though it's a huge time commitment, I'm sure that it's gratifying seeing the lessons he is learning that will impact his life. -never giving up, work hard if you want to succeed, how to lose graciously, teamwork, and most important, that his parents always have his back...
