With Some Effort, the Galaxy Beat the Seahorses
By: Laurie | May 3rd, 2007We beat the PDL team the Seahorses yesterday! Yippee!
Yeah, the Seahorses. Truly, what kind of name is this for a team? I mean, if you’re stuck on the Marine Life motif, why not go for something manly? Like, y’know, the Swordfish! Or the…the Orcas! Or the Sperm Whales, for heavens sakes.
(Seriously, when I become rich and buy a soccer team, they will be called The Sperm Whales. I’m not kidding.)
But at any rate. The Galaxy beat the Seahorses last night at La Mirada High School. “Galaxy” here seeming to mean the team that was called the “Galaxy Reserves” last time out, give or take a couple and minus Jaqua and Findley. And they did include my new favorite player, Johnny Bravo, who is so new and unheard of he doesn’t even seem to have his own Wikipedia page. Imagine! When you google the name “Johnny Bravo,” all the links go to the cartoon character.
But at any rate, this wasn’t the cakewalk some probably expected, with the scoreline reading 0-0 at the half. Fortunately Mike Randolph and the newly healthy Gavin Glinton must have taken that halftime pep talk to heart, because here’s the scoring summary:
Scoring Summary:
Los Angeles – Gavin Glinton (Mike Randolph) – 49th minute
Southern California – Steven Lenhart (Takashi Yamada) – 75th minute
Los Angeles – Gavin Glinton (Mike Randolph) – 78th minute
Los Angeles – Mike Randolph (Gavin Glinton) – 88th minute
Finl score: Galaxy 3 – 1 Seahorses. I’m thinking it may be good to have Gavin fit again.
This was the Galaxy lineup: Lance Friesz, Josh Tudela, Andy O’Shea, Kyle Veris, Gordon Kljestan, Peter Vagenas, Mike Randolph, Johnny Bravo, Wilmer Lopez (Brian Park 61′), Santino Quaranta (Mike Casso 69′), Gavin Glinton.
