Ashland High School soccer keeper Tejas Leie Heyden

Thanks, in large part, to a heroic effort from Tejas this past Wednesday night, the Grizzlies will be playing again today in Woodburn. The AHS goalie held Liberty scoreless through regulation and two OTs. To top it off, he block two of their first four penalty kicks to send Ashland on to the next round of the Oregon state playoffs.

We all learned from the Arizona-Oregon football game that an excessive celebration penalty can be very costly. On that occasion the Ducks may have lost the game (and the national championship) because of the penalty.

Today’s series of photos show another kind of penalty for excessive celebration. 😉

Yesterday’s soccer match with Evergreen went well in Medford, putting SOU at the top of the CCC standings with a 1-0 record. Tomorrow’s game (9/27/14 @ 10 a.m.) against Northwest will be in Ashland in Raider Stadium on the brand new field. This will be the first game on the new Fuller Field. The first 200 people get a t-shirt.

Today’s photo was the first non-test shot that I took with my new Nikon D750.

Don’t forget tonight’s volleyball game.
