In the mean time we haved moved on to Lacrosse season. Here are a couple shots of Gabe and a short video, remember to look for the dark red helmet.
As the game came to an exciting close in the few short last seconds of the 5 to 5 tie, a scrum developed in front of the Snohomish team goal. Gabe dove in and fought hard for the ball. The timing bench started yelling out the ten second countdown to end the game 10, 9, 8....the scrum flipped the ball out onto open grass, 7, 6, 5 Gabe scooped the ball turned to the goal, 4, 3 and shot through three defenders and the goaliee to score the last second game winning goal. He turned to face his team and with his stick raised high into the air screamed in amazement, "IT WENT IN!" We actually saw the ball magically thread the needle of arms, legs, sticks and bodies to find the upper corner of the net. It was magical!! But as bad luck would have it no one was holding a camera in the directon of the action.
That's the short update for now. Hope this finds you well. I will get some updates from my last trip to Haiti soon. Still looking into getting some photos from the trip photographer.
