Last Friday the Princess Strikers got to take the field at the Jenks Varsity Girls soccer game against Owasso. The had a GREAT time! First, one of the trainers came and met with all the girls and took them back to the locker room. While in the locker room, each Princess got paired up with one of the Lady Trojans. They got to learn their secret song (which we have been told they can never share with us) and also pray with them before they went out on the field. They each got to run out on the field and have their name announced over the PA system. The Lady Trojans play on the High School Football field. It was really cool! The girls were really proud and felt soooo special. We stayed for half of the game. The girls were all revved up cheering on the team and climbing all the bleachers! They all ended up in the press box with the announcers! As much as we wanted to stay and watch the awesome game, we felt it was time to go. The Trojans ended up winning 7-0, and we found out that Garth Brooks was there. His daughter plays for Owasso. I told Coach Mike that Garth was there and he said "I saw him by the concession stand! I thought to myself, Man, does that guy look like Garth Brooks!" Pretty funny! And pretty cool as well. We really appreciated the warm welcome these girls gave our team. They were awesome with our little Princesses! We fully intend on attending many more High School soccer games! We really hope it gives the girls a lot of inspiration! Go TROJANS!
Here are a couple of pictures and a video!
