Boys U17, Two in a row, State Cup
Champions
(June, 2009) -
Vardar West won a hard fought victory over a tough
Michigan Rush Team. Score was 0-0 at half time.
About 15 minutes into the second half, Fred Smyser
played a great
through ball to Nermin Chrnic. Nermin scored
seconds later under by slotting the ball past on
onrushing goalie.
Rush continued to fight hard and were rewarded ten
minutes later after Jacob Karasiewicz of Vardar West was
taken down with no foul called. Rush converted an
easy header at the far post.
Vardar West pressed hard for the winner after the
restart. Ryan Conerty gathered the ball in
midfield, evaded some pressure and
hammered a powerful shot against the post. Jared
Love had moved up from the back line to win balls in the
air.
He coolly stuck the bouncing ball far post for the
lead. Rush once again pressured after the restart. Sean
Lewis, the Vardar West keeper came up big in the end to
preserve the victory.
The back line of Sean Lewis, Ty Fisher, Lawrence
Murray, Joey Uhl and Jared Love dug in to the final
whistle.
Great Job Boys!
