Tim Whitney
Timmy was the goalie of the tournament. Allowed only a deflection in all weekend and making 2 pk saves in finals to secure another title for his 03 team. Tim moved his team in solid unison as we worked on the entire weekend and came out big in quite a few instances to secure 3 clean sheets and a Showcase trophy. Super Timbo
Abdilsalem el Chaer
Ab is a huge part of this successful run this weekend. He plays as a very mobile left wing back in our system and contributes as much offensively in our attack as he does defensively. Always in the correct spot and position and as smart as anyone on the pitch. Abdilsalem took the final pk to win the title as well.
Josh Wasserman
Josh had an exceptional weekend of soccer. He was a vocal leader that helped his team keep the defense organized and tight. He also led by example thru his physical play and by reading his opponent’s every move. He won every 1v1 battle this weekend and was the focal point of our impenetrable defense. Josh personifies commitment, dedication, courage and responsibility…everything needed to become a high level center back! Well done Josh!
Matias Bogan
Matias was a valuable player for helping his team lift a trophy in Weston Cup! Not only was he successful in his 1v1 battles and interrupting counter attacks, but he also participated offensively with his dangerous long balls, his smart decision making with the ball, and shooting the ball in the back of the net. Bright Future ahead of him!
Miguel Carillos
Miguel is the exact player from the right side as Abdilsalem is on the left. They work hand in hand in deciding who and when assist offensively and cover for each other perfectly. Miguel has become a complete wingback and is proving he can play at the highest level each and every week.
Eduardo Hirsch
He had a great game Vs Prime on 2/6/2021 making some great tackles defensively and winning the majority of the balls. Made smart decisions offensively helping his team score goals by putting nice through balls. He was involved in taking corners and great free kicks. Exceptional job EDU!
Feliciano Mares
Pichi the young 04 captain on his 03 team showed why this weekend. The team calls him the TANK and he sure was. Missing the starting CB this weekend Pichi stepped in to be the other CB and provided the toughness and energy that was needed throughout the weekend. The defense was impenetrable and Pichi made numerous body hits that led to attackers DAZED and Confused. Nothing more to say but Awesomeness to him.
Logan Paris
He played a spectacular tournament, from match #1 all the way to the final, being strong, confident, intelligent and played with a great personality every minute on the field, thus being a key player for the team to win the Weston Cup. Congrats Logan!
Deion Miller
Deion had a very strong performance in the Weston Cup led our team to victory. He was on fire scoring beautiful goals in multiple games, and exploded for 6 goals in the final! His confidence and leadership were on display, and his link up and combination passing plays showed that his awareness and understanding of the game is constantly improving. Congratulations Deion keep it up!
Santiago Peña
Naturally talented, as a Center Attacking Midfielder Santy shows snapshots of the “Jogo Bonito” inside the four lines. Additionally to his technical skills, his tactical skills have improved tremendously on the field in the last few months. He improved his vision of the game and movements without the ball, two key factors that go along with technical abilities. Santy had a great tournament playing high level soccer. Well deserved Satyyyy!
Oliver Polin
Oliver played an exceptional Weston Cup, giving 100% in every game, in every play. I want to highlight the improvement that he has had in recent weeks. Well deserved Oli.
