Micaela and Brenna each had a tournament in town this weekend called the Pepsi Cup. I was only able to attend the Friday games as I worked all weekend. Micaela's team did not do so well this weekend. I think they placed 6th out of 8?! Brenna's team made it to the championship this weekend before losing their final game. I don't know the final score but it was 5-0 in the second period when Cassie text me last. I would have loved to have been able to watch them since they were at home this weekend but if I wanted to be able to go down to the cities two weekends in a row in Aug for the International Cup and Midwest Selects, I had to work this weekend. The Wildcats had some Olympic Silver cheering them on during Fridays games as well. Jocelyn Lamoureux showed up at the tourney and gave the U10's, U12's and U14's a pre-game locker room pep talk. She even stayed on the bench for the U12 game. I was really surprised that when she took the bench, she actually made a point to personally speak to the girls and give them advice as they came off the ice. Micaela said she spoke to her a couple times and told her things that she had not thought of or should have done differently on that play.
I talked to her a little before the game. She was well spoken, courteous and very respectful. I was really surprised that when she took the bench, she actually made a point to personally speak to the girls and give them advice. Very good representative of Olympic Silver (should have been GOLD) and Fighting Sioux Green and White.
