The Mighty Bluebird White team made their fourth consecutive final of
the 2002 fall season and won their third tournament of the year in the
2002 Jaguar Cup Invitational. The Bluebirds won their first game 6-0 over
LRFC '90 White, they won their second game 5-0 over FC United '90, they
won their third game 4-0 over Blitz United '90, they won their fourth
game 3-0 over the Arkansas Comets and they won their fifth game 2-1 over
LRFC '90 White. The Mighty Bluebirds outscored their opponents by a total
of 20-1 winning their second consecutive Jaguar Invitational.
The Bluebird defense is the best in the business as they allowed one goal in the tournament and it was the first goal scored against the Bluebirds in their last eight games. The Bluebirds defense is led by goalie, Bethany Morrison, outside defenders Caty McMains, and Kaylee Flowers, sweeper Amanda Janton, and on top of the diamond players Abby Bloom and Jonie Block. Abby Bloom had her best tournament ever and even added a goal from her defensive position. Fantastic play was turned in by all these players as is usual.
On the offensive end of the midfield Caroline Benton led
all scorers with six goals in the tournament while Annie DeCoursey added
three goals, and Rebekah Riner and Erin Howland played instrumental roles
in helping the Bluebirds control the midfield. At forward Katie Udron
scored two goals, Kelsey Hatcher two, Haley Whisenhunt one, Tracy Powell
one, and Ashley Moskow four. In the final Annie DeCoursey got the first
goal and Ashley Moskow scored the game winner on a cross from Kelsey Hatcher
to win it.
