Spots Still Open on MSC Summer Teams
With the first official club tryouts already completed, MSC teams are forming and training for summer soccer, to include league and tournament play. Most club teams do have roster spots remaining, however, so contact our club registrar today for more information, or visit the individual boys’ and girls’ team pages and contact the designated team manager.
2000 Boys Win Jefferson Cup
The 98 and 00 boys traveled to Richmond, VA, this March to participate in the 33rd annual Jefferson Cup, one of the top tournaments in the country (ranked #2 in fact in 2011) and listed along with Surf Cup, WAGS, Disney Showcase and the Dallas Cup as one of the five best tournaments in North America. Over 300 men’s colleges were represented for recruiting purposes. The first Alaska teams to ever be accepted into the tournament, the boys faced off against competition from New York, Virginia, North Carolina and Kentucky and found great success. The 2000 boys finished as tournament champions, in fact, and the 1998 boys finished as semifinalists, dropping a hard-fought 2-1 contest to a team from New York.
96 Girls Showcase in Vegas
Fresh off a very successful trip to the CASL Girls Showcase in Raleigh, NC, where several MSC players returned with college scholarship offers in hand, the 96 girls took it to another level this past March, going 2-1-1 in the Players Showcase in Las Vegas, NV, while playing in front of another 60-plus college scouts. The squad picked up a pair of 3-0 victories over teams from Utah and CalSouth, while drawing 1-1 with another CalSouth team and losing 2-1 to the bracket winners, also from CalSouth. It was a great weekend, and several players earned new scholarship opportunities, while all solidified existing offers.
Finalists in CalSouth!
