Metuchen, NJ
After winning the U7 Boys 3v3 Soccer tournament in Morris Plains, the Kicker Crew made their way to Metuchen to conquer an even greater challenge- a 4V4 U8 tournament. Despite the competition, and filling in for another team with missing players, the Kicker Crew held their own.
Due to Walter Zawacki's speed and strength, the Crew was able to lead the first game by seven goals. Chase Reardon lended great support in midfield, with an assuring determination to win. But it was Alex Brandon, a known midfielder with great technical skill, who surprised the team and audience by leading the back line with strong defense. By the end of the tournament, he was headering shots out-of-goal and doing everything in his power to protect the goal- much like Nemanja Vidic. In a highly defensive final game against a team that beat them earlier, the Crew retaliated, defeating them for the championship.
The Crew, on this day, consisted of many superstars- Stevan Patino, Chase Reardon, Cam Reardon, Ted Rosenfeld, Ryan Berman, Walter Zawacki, and Alex Brandon. All worked hard, with pink in their cheeks, and smiles when victory was claimed.
