April 19, 2009 - MIAMI LAKES, FL - It was another great weekend of soccer for Pinecrest Premier SC, as our teams represented well in the annual Miami Lakes Shootout. Coach Alex Abaroa’s U14 Girls faced home town favorites Miami Lakes in the championship match of the Gold Division. The two teams had met previously in a first round game which ended in a 2-2 draw. The finals would be just as close, in the end, our girls had enough heart to edge Miami Lakes 3-2 and bring home the trophy.
On the other side, Coach Ralph Sosa’s U9 Boys looked like they were ready to cruise the tournament’s U9 Boys Silver-2 Division. Resounding victories over Doral Soccer and Hollywood Wildcats left them feeling pretty good about their chances. High in confidence, they suffered a let down, on their final game, against a resilient Weston Fury team. Fortunately, they had done just enough to to make it to the Championship game against a Doral Soccer team with intent on revenge. The boys, however, had other plans. On this day, our U9 Boys showed their stuff on their way to a convincing 6-1 victory and brought back another trophy.
Many of our other teams participated in the tournament. We also want to commend Chris Child’s U14 Boys, Josh Kirk’s U12 Boys, Nader Moztarzadeh’s U11 Boys, Nelson Valenzuela’s U10 Boys and Nick Megaloudis’ U9 Boys all on reaching the finals of their respective divisions.
Congratulations to all the teams on a great weekend!
