A nice night for soccer and the pre-game activities for the Haddonfield girls soccer opener went like clockwork (with much credit to phys ed teacher and boys basketball coach Paul Wiedeman, who set up the stadium and ran the scoreboard): everything was on time, everything worked, the National Anthem played just when I announced it, and we had a nice crowd to boot.
The only thing that did not go right was down on the field as Sterling beat HMHS, 1-0. We didn't play bad, they just played a bit better. Credit to Sterling's Ashley Kerrigan, who made a nice move and found herself with a clear angle on goal and then made a perfect shot to the upper right with 18:43 left in the second half.
It was a very close game, but the bottom line was they made one play and put the ball in the goal and we didn't. But we sure will in the coming days and weeks. It's a long season. Next game is tomorrow.
