Coach Fennig and "The Unforgiven"

From Michael Fennig to his Dad...Oh..well I'll be...that's me:


Dad,
The Sunnyvale soccer team had a game last night in Commerce. This was the announcement that I composed this and was read to the high school:

Last night, the Raiders soccer team proved once again that they are a force to be reckoned with. The Commerce Tigers made a fatal error by scoring a cheap, initial goal, which only infuriated Coach Fennig’s squad. The Raiders responded by scoring three, unanswered goals in the second half, severely punishing Commerce for their grave mistake. The first goal was credited again to forward Tucker Ray, who professionally chested down a beautiful left cross from Isreal Quiroz, and set himself up for a perfectly placed shot, which soared just inches off the ground into the near corner, mesmerizing the keeper and the entire defense. Isreal Quiroz, whose skill alone wrought havoc all night long on the Tiger back line, silenced the Commerce bench with assistance from Tucker Ray’s precision pass from the right side, slotted home a sizzling left footed shot, which rendered the keeper’s lunging dive futile. If there was any doubt as to the superiority of the Sunnyvale squad, all questions were answered when Nils “The Swede” Randerz, took a direct free kick from mid-field (yes, MID-FIELD). The power and ferocity of the shot manifested itself as horror on the Commerce keeper’s face as he performed the obligatory yet innocuous, one-footed shuffle backwards, hoping in vain to redirect the earthbound missile. He was unsuccessful. The Raiders defense must also be credited for performing above and beyond expectations.

Next week, the Raiders take on Richardson High School, who last year took advantage of a fledgling Sunnyvale soccer team. Coach Fennig has since dubbed the Richardson soccer team “The Unforgiven” and has ordered “No Quarter”.
