Congratulations to the MMFS Lightning middle division soccer team for winning their league championship!
On November 18th in the frozen tundra know as Red Hook, Brooklyn, our middle division soccer team won their first MSAL league soccer tournament championship in a battle of previously unbeaten teams. It was a very exciting game down to the last minutes. Our players displayed great teamwork and fought to the very end with a 3-1 victory over Solomon Schechter.
The team had a great season, prevailing in play-off games leading up to the championship. To get to the final championship game, the team played an incredible second round play-off game against BHMS on November 13th that went well into the dark hours of the evening. The score remained 0-0 until the final three minutes of the game when our team scored two goals and came out with a win!
Congratulations to our hardworking and talented team and to their coaches Earl and Grace on a fabulous year.
Go Lightning!
