THE FINALS! As atheletic director, Gerson was not only going to be playing in one of the games, but he had to prepare the soccer field, buy the trophies and medals, hire the referee, put the speakers up, and arrange for someone to annouce the game. He had a LOT of work to do before it was ever time to play!
There were actually two games. The first game was played to determine 3rd and 4th place. The ref in the above picture has worked with Gerson a lot. He also has worked as a ref for several major league games here in Santa Cruz.
During the first game, Gerson had another problem to deal with! COWS decided they also wanted to play soccer and be a part of the final games! They entered the field on one end, and walked/jogged to the other end. The game came to a stand-still until the ref and the players could convince the cows that they didn't belong! Never a dull moment . . .
Meanwhile, Gerson ran the stats table, also known as the prize table. As he watched the first game, he admired the first place trophy, dreaming of helping his team win it. Was it to be?
When the first game finished, Gerson's team, Theology, huddled up for some stategic planning, pep talks, and prayer. In the first half, they played super well and were winning 1-0 going into the second half.
HOWEVER, in the end, their rivals (Biochemistry), made a mighty comeback and won by one point. The final score was 1-2. But, second place isn't too shabby! They were proud of the way they played. There's always NEXT semester! (Gerson wanted me to make sure I mentioned that in this picture he is giving our baby a love pat!)
