It has been a great season!<br /><br />It is very unfortunate that the only ones who are penalized for the mistake of the officials Friday night are the girls on the MP soccer team who have put their hearts and their energy into this soccer season. <br /><br />To end the season on a "technicality" that no one seamed to know about on Friday night is a real shame for these girls! <br /><br />What are we teaching our children? Is it ok to make a mistake and never be held accountable for it? It is ok to give up when you are down by 2 goals? These are not lessons that I would like my children to learn!<br /><br />It sends a message to these girls that the officials were dismissing their ability! Shame on them! MP lady mustangs deserve another chance to show everyone what they are capable of doing. I would have stayed there until 2 am, I would have driven back up Monday night for 27 minutes! <br /><br />Charlotte should stand behind the MP lady Mustangs and contact the State and make them play the rest of the game!carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00690285044826842291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-538710650323519584.post-78986867793572176282011-05-16T22:27:13.381-04:002011-05-16T22:27:13.381-04:00Congrats to the Mustangs on a great season! lets ...Congrats to the Mustangs on a great season! lets remember these are high school girls who have worked very hard, and a beloved coach who wanted the best for his kids. its a shame their hard work came to an end like this.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-538710650323519584.post-69092035468263179222011-05-16T21:59:28.506-04:002011-05-16T21:59:28.506-04:00It's soccer ... nobody cares.It's soccer ... nobody cares.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-538710650323519584.post-74894648805959841822011-05-16T18:03:16.448-04:002011-05-16T18:03:16.448-04:00Why would you drive an hour and a half to play 27 ...Why would you drive an hour and a half to play 27 minutes. In any organization the rule book of soccer says whoever is leading at halftime wins the game if there is inclement weather. Never trust high school officials.

The Piedmont Soccer booking agent sent out a memo to all schools (and I assume officials) concerning playoff issues like tie breaking procedure, weather, etc. I realize the Piedmont Soccer officials might have not been assigned to this game. But one would think officials that warrant playoff assignments (and their booking agent) would know the rules. I hate it for the girls (and any team) when the outcome of the contest can't be decided on the field.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-538710650323519584.post-57772775767525329782011-05-16T15:12:59.400-04:002011-05-16T15:12:59.400-04:00Slow pace of soccer?
