On Friday March 5th, 2010, I traveled to Union City to pick up my teammate Tyrone before going to San Jose. As we were in the car, I asked him if he was nervous and he told me that he was, but only a little. I was getting nervous myself for my stomach was flip-flopping around. When we saw the sign for San Jose, I told myself that it would be okay and that if we lost, as a team, it would be fine and we would go to Indianapolis anyway. Good thing it wasn't raining either because it would have been an awful day.
Once we got off the highway and onto the main road where the gym was located, I whispered to myself, "Breathe, Talia. Breathe." That helped, a little. We were late by the time we got there, so we hustled on over to the Spartan Gym Complex and got our foot guards on right away to warm up with my team, the BORP Crushers. At exactly 4:30 pm, it was GAME TIME! The team that the BORP Crushers were playing against was the Glendale Wild Wheelers team from Glendale, California. We beat them 2-0! The Glendale Wild Wheelers were a new team and they tried to be a good team, but they didn't really have a strong defense.

As the calendar switched to 2010, the Arizona Heat looked to build on a great 2009 by qualifying again for the National Tournament during the Western Regional in San Jose, Ca. Along with a new season, 2010 also brought several changes to the Heat squad, including two new members. Athletes Katie Dickey and Ginny Munson joined the squad this season after moving to Arizona to attend Arizona State University. Once they joined the team, many hoped that they would bring their winning ways with them from their former squad in Indiana.
And they didn’t disappoint.

From Friday, March 5th to Saturday March 6th, the Atlanta teams, the Tigers and the Synergy, hosted the South Eastern Regional Tournament for 2010. In pool play, each team played all of the other teams, which brought back some old rivalries, like the one between the Tampa Thunder and the Tampa Bay Crossfire. Throughout all but one of the games, the Synergy clearly dominated in goals scored, while the opposing teams couldn't seem to get past the Synergy defense to score. The Tidewater Piranahs were, in fact, the only team to score against the Synergy, but it still wasn't enough to win the game. The Synergy scored seven goals, and the Piranhas scored twice on the Synergy.
