TOP Soccer Program By Richard Bletsch, Director April 20, 2002 On a gorgeous day for soccer, Center Street saw a magnificent turnout with games being played simultaneously on both fields. The junior game had an abundance of offense with 10 goals, evenly split between the two teams! The red team had single goals by Christian Buccellato, Joseph Ellul and Brian Murtha. Robert Valli added two tallies to account for their 5 goals. The yellow team, not to be outdone, responded with five of their own. The attack was spear-headed by the two Andrews, Solar and Raihl, each with two goals. Rounding out the scoring was Joseph Horan, our newest player, to knot the match at five. The senior match was quite spirited and see-sawed back and forth until the final goal in the last two minutes. The blue team, wearing their new pinnies, got a huge boost from Stefani Egre with two goals. However, the red team had a more diverse group of scorers and just out-numbered their opponents by a 3-2 final score. Eugene Simmons, Joe Andreani and Melissa Bauer teamed up for the offensive barrage. Cabbage Patch Division Power Puff Girls An exciting fast paced game today.
