    It's obvious that no mere mortal is qualified to lead the extraordinary cherubs of Northboro and Southboro on the soccer pitch. After Gonk's second loss in two years, it's time to begin the intergalactic search for KM's replacement.

      Nope, although cheers for the colorful imagery, it's just that anyone could see this coming once the team actually played outside its comfort zone (remember the 1-0 loss to D2 Hopkinton that was seen as a preseason fluke?).

        And considering A/B lost to L/S by a goal, Algonquin should get busy making adjustments if the team is thinking at all about going to the State championship.

          Not to mention Hopkinton is only 5-4 in the D2/D3 Tri-Valley league. Oof.

            L-S just tied an awful Boston Latin HS team. The metro area is just as unpredictable as CMass. Look STJ only lost to BC High 1-0, a good BC High team and STJ is struggling in CMass. BC High tied Brockton also who is one of the favorites in the south. I believe we have three good D1 schools this year that can compete.

I know some of the MPS U15s from last year have won various titles (I'm sure you can check the MPS site to find out). As to MTOC, a number of the boys played for Southborough & won the D2 MTOC championship a few years ago.

              The team definitely has talent, the problem I see is that the regular season schedule is too easy and doesn't provide adequate preparation for postseason play. Also, the coach has a problem when the team runs into other teams that play with bigger/older/faster players, as he has quite a few small kids on the team who just get outmuscled.

              This loss, I'm sure, will be treated as a learning opportunity.

              Oh yeah I think the MPS players came out on top in the Bodunk Corn Husking Festival. The competition was fierce.

                  Yes, I'd be interested to hear too...

Oh and to the poster about Wachusett displaying good sportsmanship? 11 yellow cards, 1 red card on the year and a kid recruited from North playing for them. Wachusett score was only 6-0 because they can't score goals.
                    "More than 13 yellows and you can't play in the post season" Period. Read MIAA rule in the latest newsletter in the soccer section of the MIAA web site. Also, if you have a kid that doesn't live in the district (Wachusett) and commutes to school there from Worcester, you really should have that Form 200 filled out. That's really not fair.

                      There are cards you can appeal and trust me, the MIAA does waive some of them.

D1 since 1975: Mid-Wach A 15 (including 7 Wach, 4 Algonquin, 2 Milford, 1 Leominster), St. John's 14 (that's pretty amazing but in most states the Catholics have to play with the privates), Marlboro 3 ('75, '79 and '91), Holy Name 1 ('82) and Doherty 1 ('80). I wonder if they have a historic listing of state champs somewhere. Would be interested to see it in hoops too.

                          Our team's in a bit of card trouble (though nowhere near 11). Do you know for a fact that that appeal process with the MIAA is in place and works?

                            Yes it is. St. John's is notorious for getting to the max each year.
