MYSA Lunachicks Soccer

A Classic Kind of Weekend

Coach Mike | November 17, 2008

The Lunachicks headed to Charlotte, North Carolina this past weekend to play in the CUFC United Cup. This was a somewhat unique experience for the team, as they play at the ‘Challenge’ level normally, but were slated to play at the ’2nd Division Classic’ level in this tournament. We had asked to face stronger teams to see how the team stacked up against teams that normally played at a higher level. In the end we were not disappointed. We were placed in the Premier division and our bracket consisted of a number of strong 2nd division teams. To keep the girls from getting too nervous, we didn’t tell them exactly who they would be playing at first, just that they would be strong teams. Coach Mike was extremely nervous that week, hoping upon hope that they would do alright and not make this a wasted trip as it was also the first big overnight tournament for the team.
