Second Day - Vs Fairport



Fairport has produced some great players over the years like current Albany keeper Blaze Reardon and Syracuse's Derek DeJoe its is a great program and the coaches and players made friends with out players, I spoke to Coach Sudan who played for Team USA in Manchester in 94 We swapped stories and the guys couldn't be nicer, unlike the refs!


Coach Sudan




I thought we played very well but the refs seemed to be there for the pay cheque and ignored some obvious calls even ignoring an injured player on the floor, I wasn't happy and received a penalty! The opposition coach went on to the field to complain also and backed me up on the call, Safety first the same coach had had even brought up this scenario in the Coaches meeting!



Winton once again scored the first goal of the game to get us started he has worked tirelessly in both tournaments and has turned defenders inside out with his quick footwork!





Alex Russell scored on a great dodge and dunk!

Steven Ewing leads on the field and scored again hitching his defender tucking inside to finish! Steve also had a great diving goal which was wiped out although Fairport scored a goal that was exactly the same where the player hasn't been pushed and landed in the crease and the goal was given!

Tim Nicol came with a great roll back move off the wing but the goalie made a great save!




Scott Dagnanleach tucked inside his man changing hands to hit the bar!
It's his go to move and was unlucky not to Score!

The score ended 5-3.

We had a great time with Fairport and took a picture with the team afterwards!
