Friday we played our County tournament game at South Brunswick and lost. We ended up 2-10-1.

Our junior captain Angel Barillas Scored 12 of our 18 goals and had three hat-tricks. Giovanni Pepe had 6 goals. I Would be remiss if I did not mention our senior captain Anthony Vella. All season long as sweeper, the last defender, he came up time and time again bigger than I thought possible.
I look forward to keeping in touch with my guys regarding their soccer futures with the team. Four of my ninth graders have already agreed to be on the tennis team. Aces!

We have played three games in the last week with some positives along the way. Last Wednesday we lost 8 to 4. We go to Friday and arguably our best game of the season we lost 2 to 1 to Wardlaw who had beaten us 7-1 two weeks ago. On Monday we played another team that had beaten us decisively 6-1 two weeks ago, and once again the guys showed their grit in the 3 to 1 loss. I am pleased to say that our guys are showing improvement week to week. What a game! The boys showed that their game has improved over the last two weeks. Two teams that handily beat us the first time faced a different opponent with the Guvs losing by a single goal in both rematches. Our next game was against Piscataway VT, a fast talented team who by the way we beat the first game 2-1. We knew it would be tough. After 100 minutes the teams battled to a 5-5 draw .Notable in this game...Angel Barillas scoring his second hat trick of the season. Joel Diaz's brilliant shot to end with 2 goals. In goal Isaiah saved us half a dozen times with his awesome goal keeping. The spine of the team led by Anthony Vella and Maaz Farooq at backs with Ryan Skokowski and Devin Krass in midfield proved they were up to the speed of our opponents.
I was pleased with the way the guys played today. We certainly had our chances to put the game away and when things went off we were composed enough to earn the draw.

HS Boys Soccer Weekly report September 21
Since my last report we have won one game and lost two. Still molding a defense for the future because my young guys are seeing and will continue to see quite a bit of time. Our goal scores have been Angel Barillas who has three And Giovanni happy with two. The overall attitude of the team is still very positive and I will attempt to keep it that way for the duration. I did make mention especially for my young guys to begin to watch more soccer on TV. With two more games this week we look to bounce back.

HS Girls Soccer:
The Varsity Girls Soccer Program has had a tumultuous preseason - searching for enough girls to form a competitive team. Finally, after much hard work and dedication by the 11 diligent young ladies, the team is ready for their season opener against Dunellen on Monday, September 13th. Although there are just enough to field a team, there is very little that can hold this group of girls back from success. They will have a great season!
MS Girls Soccer:
The girls middle school soccer team is off to a great start. Their practices just started and the girls are showing an immense amount of commitment and effort. With their first game right around the corner they are putting in a lot of work and are surely a force to be reckoned with this season!
HS Boys Soccer:
The season began last Friday against Wardlaw Hartridge. We lost that game 6-2. Our two goals came from Angel Barillas who I suspect will have more coming. Some notables...Davey Cheng, first year in goal, showed much courage as a sophomore. Anthony Vella , our anchor in defense, had his work cut out for the entire game and came up big time and again. A couple of freshmen showed promise and desire when they got their chance to play most notably Luke Nemeth and Dominick Pawlis.
As the season continues I look forward to giving the younger guys more playing time. The overall attitude has been brilliant and the team and the coaching staff{me-lol}are making progress.
MS Boys Soccer:
Middle school boy's soccer had their first practice last week. We covered basic footwork, cardio with/without the ball, worked out the goalkeeper, and played a mini-scrimmage. We have a full week of practice starting today and our first game is next Tuesday - we still need players or we won't be able to field a team. Our first game is scheduled for Tuesday, September 21st.
