Alumni Game


18 former players returned to Bobcat Stadium for a match against the current squad. It was a very spirited game which was competitive in the first half. Ricky Bockari(player/coach) was very creative in his tactical decisions for the alumni team, playing a variety of different formations even opting for 1-5-4 towards the end leaving goalkeeper Brandon Rethemeyer with a lone defender to thwart the attacks of the current squad. Last year's AMCC Conference Player of the Year, Adam Gracia, was kept in check for most of the game only registering one shot which was saved easily by current goalkeeper Stephen Cavallo. The boys really enjoyed seeing and meeting all the former players and hearing their stories about how much the program means to them and getting a chance to share in some of their memories.
