THE STARS COME OUT AND SHINE

Morris Plains, NJ

     The girls in red brought the heat to Sunday’s U8 girls 3v3 turf tournament.  These Hoboken All Stars broke off into two teams to battle four other clubs for the final U8G Short Sided Soccer title of the winter.  Hoboken took an early lead against Clark with a 5-3 win, followed by Hoboken 2’s similar victory of 6-3 over Millburn Fever B.  Despite Hoboken’s wins, Millburn Fever A, B, and Clark came to play, giving the Hoboken teams a run for their money.

    Just as Hoboken claimed another 3 points, The Unit showed up with size and force, surprising the competition.  The Unit took control of the blue division defeating Millburn Fever B and Hoboken All Stars 2.  The Unit leaped into the finals against Hoboken 1, and played a commendable game of defense.  Although The Unit’s size, strength, and skill led them to the top of its division, Hoboken showed no signs of intimidation, and stole the show, 3-1.  The Hoboken girls, once again, are winners of the U8 girls 3v3 turf tournament.

     Thanks to all U8 girls teams for participating in Short Sided Soccer’s tournaments throughout the winter.  Best of luck in the spring, and we hope to see you at another one of our future tournaments.
