The Methacton United U10A Girls Blue Crush took 1st Place in the 2005 Rob Schaefer Memorial Classic at Harleysville Soccer Club. On two extremely hot days with an average temperature in the high 90's, the Blue Crush tied the Deep Run Lazers 3-3 and 1-1 and then defeated the Harleysville Hurricanes 7-0 and 5-0. After the tournament ended, the Blue Crush and the Deep Run Lazers were dead even. So close were the two teams that it took the 10th tie breaker (shoot out) to determine a winner. After playing in a 5-player shoot out, the teams were tied 3-3. Finally a sudden death shoot out gave the Blue Crush a 4-3 win.

Methacton U9 Lightning takes Second at Labor Day Tournament
2005U9FALaborDay.jpg
Methacton U9 Lightning had an impressive first tournament. Our record at the end of the tournament was three and one. We outscored our opponents 20-3, and almost every girl on the team scored a goal. The team improved every game, ending the tournament with five straight halves which our defense did not allow a goal. An amazing job for girls that have been together as a team for less then three months.
