The St. Croix Youth Soccer Association hosted a visit by two St. Thomas Youth Soccer Association teams this weekend at the ALCOA field.
The St. Croix Under-14 Strikers team, boasting a a 2 – 0 record in the V.I. league, played first against St. Thomas Youth Soccer in an exciting game. The match at the half was 3 – 1 in favor of the visitors. Adjustments to tactics during the break turned the tables and the Strikers struck back in the second half with three goals to take three points.
In other action, the Strikers lined up against a strong Cancryn team that have proved to be the dominant team in the five-team league. The visitors were in yellow and black striped shirts and looked like wasps. Early in the game they stung with a goal and then held the lead until deep into the second half. A spectacular shot from 25 yards off the foot of Tony Rois tied up the score giving both teams a hard earned win.
Final games will be played Saturday Nov. 18. The league champion will be the winner between The Senior Girls team Nichols, Newman, Logan & D'Eramo and Hamilton Purified Water.
