CONGRATULATIONS to the MK United U11 Girls Blue Team and Coach Scott Simkowski for finishing as Finalists in two tournaments during the 2009-2010 season.   

 

As Finalists in the Cedarburg Fall Classic, September 25-27 2009, the team had 3 wins and 1 loss, losing in the final against the Cedarburg Strikers. 

 

As Finalists in the Brookfield Select Cup, June 11-13 2010, they lost to the Brookfield Red - P team in bracket play, 4-0, but made it to the finals by beating the Panthers SC Stars and the Brookfield Red - R.  In the final they went up against the same Brookfield Red - P team they lost to in the first game, but this time the girls fought hard and went ahead early.  Brookfield tied it up in the second half and in overtime, with 10 seconds to play before the game would go to penalty kicks, Brookfield scored off a corner kick.

 

But the girls can hold their heads high, and Coach Simkowski had this final comment to the team and parents: Great Tourney and season! It was a delight to coach your daughters! These girls work so hard each week and really love to play the game.

CONGRATULATIONS to the MK United U14 Girls Team for finishing as Champions in the U15 Girls Division at the Lighthouse Classic tournament in Racine, Oct 10-11, 2009.  Only one U15 girls team registered for the tournament, so the best U14 teams were moved up to play against them.  It was a tough division, with the MK United U14 girls qualifying to play in the Final by winning one game and tying the other two.  In the Final, played against the Pewaukee Pirates U14 Girls, regular time expired with both teams still scoreless.  Rachel Snyder was in the goal for the penalty kick shoot-out, and she saved two goals and another Pewaukee shooter missed the goal mouth, which was enough to give MK United the 1st place trophy, 3-2.

Great job ladies - and congratulations on a great Fall 2009 season!

CONGRATULATIONS to the MK United U14 Girls Blue Team and Coach Toby Whipple for clinching the WYSA Southeast Classic League B-East Championship for the spring 2009 season with a record of 7-1-0.

 

This team lost out on being league champions last fall and being promoted by one goal and they were determined not to let that happen this spring.  They fought through some player attrition late in the spring season, but persevered to win the championship!  Actually, this team only lost two league games for the entire 2008-09 year.

 

This team also went undefeated in the MKsc Froedtert/Medical College of WI A/B Select Tournament this spring with three straight shutout wins.

 

Looking back to last fall, they were the champions of the Racine Lighthouse Tournament and were runners up at the New Berlin Fall Classic Tournament. 

  

You're awesome ladies & YOU ARE THE CHAMPIONS!!
