The Mighty Bluebird Black team played up
a division playing U-12 instead of their regular age group of U-11. Despite
playing up the Bluebirds dominated play playing their first game against
the Fort Smith Express Fire 8-0, they won their second game against the
Tulsa Thunder White 3-0, they beat the Arkansas Futbol Club Comets 8-0
in the third game, and in the final they beat the Lady Lobos of Memphis
3-0. Total goals scored in the tournament were 22 goals scored and zero
allowed.
The offense was led again by Haley Hatcher, Larkin Hatcher, Annie Stafford, Macey Burr, and Haley Filat. The defense was led by Leah Riner at sweeper, Annie Sixbey, Elizabeth Freeman at fullback, and Olivia Caillouet at the top of the diamond with Madison Brooks and Annie Stafford doing a great job at goalie shutting all teams out throughout the tournament. The Black team finished another strong year advancing to the finals in every tournament they played in and winning all their tournaments, but one.
