Kitty and me made the scoreboard in tonight's game.  There was a request before the tourney started
by York9 FC staff that fans should send in a picture of themselves that would be shown in the stadium. 
The cameras have mostly been pointed downward but I caught a glimpse of us during a break in the action.
