April 16, 2009. Aaron's team played their second game in the Ohio State Cup tournament tonight. They played one of the top rated teams in the area, and were owned in the other teams offensive end, but AJ controlled the midfield.
The following sequence was pretty typical of the game with AJ (#2 in black) winning all the physical match ups.
Here's another series where he picks the ball, and goes the other direction with it.
He was distributing the ball very well too. Here's a sequence of drawing the outside defender to him, then pushing the ball out wide to a teammate that was making a run outside of the frame.
And finally, lauching a throw in deep down the field.
All in all it was a great game for AJ, but a bad game for the team.
Way to play AJ! I really seams like your kiddos are fitting right in after the move. That is wonderful!
