Go Knights!

We were so excited to find out early this week that the men's soccer team from Calvin would be playing right here in Redlands! The U of R and Calvin are both part of the final eight in their division. The games are to be held this weekend, starting tonight. It's an understatement to say that there is just a little excitement around here. I think the Calvin team is surprised to find out just how many fans there are way out here in Southern California. We're looking forward to a great showing of maroon and gold at the game tonight. There was dinner for the team at our church hosted by some of the alumni last night. What a neat experience to meet the team and coaches. The players did a great job of talking with those of us who were there and even signing Troy's ball for him before they got back on the bus! Although there has been some trash talking and division between the local U of R fans and Calvin supporters, we are looking forward to a great night of soccer! GO KNIGHTS!

Hmmm...These girls were all more than willing to help serve the team dinner!
