It's Soccer Season!!!

Fall Soccer Season is now in full-swing here in Barron, and Austin is right in the "thick" of things! We had our first game against Baldwin-Woodville on Thursday afternoon here in Barron. Austin is playing striker (offense) this year, and it looks like he will be a starter on the varsity. He played the whole game on Thursday, and he did really well!

Here is Austin battling for control of the ball... ~~~
Austin has been doing the corner kicks for the team when the ball goes out of bounds on our end of the field. Our only goal of the night was scored when Austin kicked a beautifully placed corner kick into Bryant Strohmeyer and he kicked it into the goal! Austin got an assist on that goal--way to go, boys!

...and the follow through! (nice extention!)

fancy footwork!

Look who came to watch his brother's first game!
We ended up tied at the end of the game, 1 to 1. It was a good start for the beginning of the season of BHS soccer!
