First, a tough loss for the freshman yesterday. I got to see the second half and it was all Lindbergh at that point. A lot of quality possession and strong efforts to use the whole field. Although we lost 1-2, no doubt that our girls showed a much higher quality of play. Freshman continue play today with a home game at 4.
The varsity is in action at 4 at Hazelwood West today.
Thanks to soccer mom Laura Rossi for putting together a spirit wear order form. Players should be getting these today through their teams. We want a quick turnaround on these so if you plan on ordering, we would like to get forms back by next Tuesday.

Results from 3/27
Congratulations to the freshman and junior varsity teams for their wins yesterday. The freshman kicked off their season with a 4-0 victory over Parkway North. They will continue play today with another home game in the Lindbergh Invitational. The junior varsity continued their winning ways with a 1-0 victory over Webster Groves.
In varsity action last night, the varsity could not find the equalizing goal and came out with a defeat against Triad 1-2. The varsity will practice today and resume competition tomorrow, Thursday, in the Hazelwood Tournament.

New local soccer website- check it out!
I just wanted to send you info on a new local soccer website soccerstl.net They covered the varsity game last night and he's got a couple photos up on the high school page already and is supposed to be posting more soon. This site is inot to be confused with stlsoccer.net, which is another good source of local soccer news but tends to get a little crazy on the message boards some time.

Congrats to the varsity for a 3-0 victory over hazelwood central on Monday. Tzianos recorded the first shutout of the year with goals from Noll, Black, and Koppy. The varsity will play at Summit tomorrow at 4. We will be all green
Let the Games Begin!!
Ok, well the games "officially' began over spring break with a strong showing from our j.v., but this week begins competition on all 3 levels of our program. Starting today, the varsity travels north for a game against Hazelwood Central at 4 p.m. in the Hazelwood Classic Tournament. J.V. picks up a game against Webster Groves on Tuesday, and the freshman begin their tournament with a home game on Tuesday as well.
Good luck to all the teams and congrats on a fantastic effort of fundraising. We still have a couple of folks turning in stuff today, but I can tell you that we will more than reach our goal. You guys are awesome and we appreciate everyones efforts.

With rain already occuring this morning and appearing to continue for the next couple of hours, we will cancel practice for this morning. Our next practice is on Sunday from 6-7:30 pm and that practice will occur rain or shine. Some players are still not linked into this email system, so if you know of a friend who was planning on going to practice this morning, you might call them and let them know its off.

J.V. finishes strong in opening tournament (and other news)
Congrats to the j.v for the great showing in the Northwest Tournament. The team wrapped up play today with an impressive 7-0 over Northwest tonight. I was really impressed with the quality of possession and overall movement of the ball. To date, the j.v has scored 10 goals and allowed only 1.
A reminder on the rest of the week: Varsity and freshman teams have practice Friday morning from 8-9:30. Sunday night practice is from 6-7:30pm. I would also encourage any j.v. players to come out Sunday night.
All coupon book sales need to be wrapped up by the end of spring break and returned to Coach Giesing.
Throughout the year, do not be surprised at the movement of players between levels. We expect to be competitve on every level and will regularly move players to meet the needs not only of the program, but individual player needs as well. For example, a varsity player receiving little playing time might be assigned a game or two at the j.v. to maintain game fitness and touch. Similarly, a freshman level player might be challenged to play on the j.v. level if her play warrants a move. The teams are not static and we must continue to support the philosophy that we are a unified program, not 3 disjointed teams. Usually we will try to give a player a week's notice of movement to another team.
