Juniata College Women's Soccer to Wear Flags in 2009
My oldest daughter Lauren is the goalkeeper for the Juniata College Women's Soccer Team. they are in the midst of pre-season training. Lauren called yesterday to say that her head coach told her that her team will get new uniforms next year with American flags on the shoulder. Coach McKenzie told Lauren that the team will wear American flags during the season I am Iraq.
I thanked Coach McKenzie, but hardly knew what to say. It's quite an honor.
Go Eagles!!
