Rich's grandparents (F. Allen & Leila Shaw Burt) from Boston came to Lake Webb in the 1920s. Since that time, the Kent family has come to Weld for summer holidays. All of the Kents grew up on the lake during the summer time.

Sadly, I was at the University and I missed this night match in Rumford. The boys called me at 9pm last night to fill me in on the excitement. Yes, Alex scored 4 goals... brilliant! He credits 3 of the goals to terrific assists by teammates. However, one goal was creative genius. :-) Peter had 20 minutes on the pitch and according to Alex, his younger brother had a shot on goal that just missed. All in all a stellar performance by the kids. Two more matches this week against formidable opponents. But this match is truly a memory to bring back to Europe.
Great news Alexander. Such a striker. You make me proud and rather happy..... but if you surprise me with a 100 on the next math test and a strong A, I will start crying of happiness
Peter, I would have never thought I would read sports comments on a blog written partly by you! This is a very unusual development - but sounds like a lot of fun!
I am sorry I am not commenting on the actual sports-comments - as I have never really learned the rules of soccer, I will probably not be able to comment with anything intelligent ;o)
Though - Alex: I know what a goal is, and I know that 4 of them is pretty cool! And Peter: With your soccer experience (and soccer-genes) 20 minutes and an almost-goal sounds really cool as well! I am very proud!
