005it's in good control here physical play at it again it's getting challenged right down the middle and finally booted out over the top by minnichog you chase down here Paul's gonna harmlessly I think oh I think that one's gonna harmlessly go out of bounds on minnichog but uh number six Shane Smith wasn't quite sure so kicked it out of bounds with an Eastlawn Meadow could set up its defense minitron gonna get a throw in here from the right hand side Nissan Meadow setting up they play it back Chase here number three Zach Richard just kind of ducked his head balls being carried through here then a truck has it played through nicely that it up yeah I had somebody they had somebody wide open over there on the other side then a truck if they
006could have swung it over but here balls finally controlled by number eight Jack Walsh has it he's carrying it up the sideline showing off some good Foot Skills there what a great pass there down the sidelines number eight has the ball Jack Walsh has it he's moving lots of Foot Skills brings it from the middle that is blasted in great save by the goalie to come out and get it but what unbelievable Foot Skills was being put on there by Jack Walsh all the way down the left hand side took on two Defenders got through and had a wide open shot if the goalie didn't come out it was going to be a clear goal get us corner kick here East Longmeadow really showing some spark early 36 minutes into the game a long one
007there goalie comes out again so far star of the game is clearly the minnetonk goalie who made an amazing save right there and then a good way to come out there on the uh on the corner kick and get that one in the air let's play there by number three Zach Richard send it off number eight for minute jog all goes out of bounds gonna get a quick sub here looks like we had a maybe a piece of jewelry was in the ear and so somebody maybe had to come out of the game it looks like to take that off I'm not sure football there this one's gonna get played back to the goalie Who's got a big foot there ball bounced a little bit up on him so he couldn't get everything on it
008but a good kick good physical play a nice touch there in the middle of the field played out here to number seven Tyler wretchen's got the ball tried that exact same play right there tried to sneak that one up there off the shin and out of bounds Tyler tried to get that one there up to East longmeadows I think most offensive player Fresno that one almost over the head batted back out kicked back up and out of bounds couldn't put that one in then a truck's gonna get a quick throw it good long throw there that one wasn't really covered the physical play in the middle of the field kicked over yeah good call there by the referee saw that number three Zach Richard was going to take an offensive possession and sorry a minitrog
009player just kind of stuck their leg out and tried to slow him down cause the penalty gonna get a free kick here number four Pasquale d ask Foley is going to blast this one in and that is a big blast there maybe just a little bit too far on it but what a big put there kicked out one a good almost 45-50 yards but it was just a little bit too far and allowed the Minotaur goalie to come out and make a relatively easy and comfortable save off of that free kick and chalk has it here showing off some good passing ability Good Foot Skills and little penalty there stuck he saw middle players stuck their foot out and then the Chalk's gonna get a free kick from the East Longmeadow 34-yard line a little
010touch pass they go with the maintained possession as opposed to the booted in this one gets sent in gets headed out gonna have a speed race here and it looks like it's going to be number seven Tyler wretchen is going to Speed it down touches it over goes to Fresno Presley gets it looks back down to play their Direction Zach Richard the wretchen little arms there it's coming back to presto Fresno's got it he's gonna he's gonna try to get it on his right foot he's got it there's a blast there a little hand hand passing a little grabbing right there but good play by each one Meadow really good quick boat work here on the left hand side between Gretchen and Fresno and one other flare little three-man game got it down there and
011created a really good offensive opportunity and then it got really physical there in the middle of the field and uh this is a good ball here says shoot that one there it's a big left-footed shot on the crowd good save good play good move little through ball touch there got the left foot on it kept it low goalie had to go down and make the save really good save there by the minute East longmeadows starting to feel it here a little bit a little kick and run soccer type here by Minnesota a little bit early on the touch Here Comes again number seven Tyler Russian trying to chase it down but it ends up out of bounds it's going to be a miniature growing so far really for the Eastlawn metal Spartans the touches have
012been seems like it's really been Zach Richard it's been Tyler Russian and Joe Fresno with the with the good touches here are the good offensive opportunities on this left side of the field play there are a little more enthusiasm voice it's like now we're gonna have an Eastlawn metal throw in on the right hand side all the way across the field it looks not sure where they're gonna throw this one in it's just kind of like tossed down goes to number three Zach Richard got it taken away challenge there in the middle of the field Zach Richard just kind of bombs it up here comes president he's got it he's chasing down he's got two people on him he's using the speed he's using his skills he's getting washed around he's wide open in the
013middle if you can get that touch oh just a great pass really showing his speed and his athleticism taking on essentially three players yeah right there good ball right there minnetonk player was just getting a little bit too aggressive there on number seven Tyler retchen who was showing off his skills really trying to take back advantage of that now we've got number five Here Andrew Oliveri from about 20 yards out we'll see if he's going to go for the shot or if this is going to be some type of set play he's looking right raises his hand looks like a set play it is he bats it in there and that is what a great play on that set play number 24 team running in on the set play it looks like Shane McCarthy a
014junior came in and interrupted the Minnesota goalie from grabbing it single hand of the ball hit the ground not sure who put it in but clearly the ball was meant for number 24 who interrupted the goalie for making a very easy catch hits the ground and we're gonna find have to find out from the referee who actually put the ball into the back of the net but really good set play there by East longmeadows yeah Smith on the goal a senior Defender coming up for the set play was able to put that one in the assist does go to Shane McCarthy by interrupting that play great play one nothing number six Shane Smith [Applause] McCarthy with the assist foreign yeah well that announcer was being made ball goes down it goes out of bounds East
015Longmeadow is going to get a goal kick they make their first substitution to the game it looks like number 21 is coming into the game along looks like number sevens making his way in number 17 is heading out Joseph mcculgan all right [Music] there they get it in the Middle East Longmeadow heads it out aggressive play there minnetonk trying to settle the ball and get another shot in that one looks like the proverbial field goal off of the post come out and a big bombing kick to the 50-yard line challenged in the middle of the field lots of players around Wilbur half minute shots tries to send it up it's covered right there it's now being sent out number eight trying to show off his speed Jack has it again not just speed there's skills
016there too ball comes through number three has it it is going to beat Zachary shark was a great opportunity makes another really good save and they try to transition quickly here and they do they get the ball down the sidelines East Longmeadow defends it well gets it out of bounds so that they can set off set up their defense he saw a metal plate I mean Wilbraham Minotaur plays it back again good play there in the middle of the field not a great touch right there by number three Zach Richard got the ball taken away from him good play right here down the sidelines a little push a little shot ball goes into the corner can I just dance around right there ball comes back still dancing down there in the corner trying to kick
017it off and get it out of bounds but East Longmeadow gets it they take their left foot Hoops it up decent trap falls down covered it's just kind of dancing here along the sidelines all the way back to the 40 yard line minnetonk has it they try to switch Fields switch areas right over the top play there by the defender you saw metal Defender settle down good play there it comes back again this one's going to be played out wide good play number eight is going to swing it in a big swinging ball he's full metal easily defends that one gets it back out again another harmless ball right there is going to easily scoop that one up so metal is going to set up its offense it starts the walks to the middle of
018the box surveys the land trying to figure out who is going to try to kick it to as far as he can and this one goes High into the clouds football punts all the way down it's being challenged while staying in East long metal pushing the small metal shoving Nissan metal Hazard Here Comes speed is coming means across there it is if it's oh very close there again then it starts only comes out sends this one down Jack's flying down interrupts the transitional play minutes on has to go back again and kind of just reset they do open their ball came up a little high ball control so far from miniature boots it in the middle oh fans are calling for a penalty there it looks like it looks like he's still on the ground
019I don't think I think it's a little bit of an exaggeration may have been a penalty but certainly we've got the ad exaggeration there by the minute shot player they get back on sides ball comes up easy catch there by Noah Garza Tucson metal gonna set it up again 25 minutes and 44 seconds remaining in the game so far the play is really the the best offensive opportunities have come by East Longmeadow minutogs had a couple of chances but nothing crazy involved this is a lot of Kicking and shoving there it's gonna go anytime gets ready for this free kick joining me in the booth is East Longmeadow girls Captain Meghan mortal making her first appearance in the lcat boots for a game Megan nice to see you here what have you seen so far
020in the game Megan I know you kind of just got here about you know 10 minutes into the game you haven't really watched that much but what have you liked so far for East Longmeadow what have you seen that you've liked um I think it's really it's a really physical game and I think that we're doing a good job yeah I'd agree with you what's that it looks like you know once once they get the ball you know I'd say past like the 30 35 yard line they've really had some really good offensive plays like this you know they've had some good opportunities what a great way there Megan what did you think of that I [Music] think and Joe presnell puts that one into the back of the net as Megan mordo joins the
021boot maybe a little bit of karma there folks but down the sidelines he went used his speed made some great passing another player had made a shot gotta saved they had a two-man game and then put it in the back of the net great play there Samir Khan and Joe presnell showing off their experience together both of them are seniors they've played many years together they're good friends off the fields number nine Samir Khan with the assist chemistry and coincidence [Music] not quite sure how many goals Preston has in the year Megan but I do think that he is the team leader so far this year well how many goals does he have you know yeah I think he has five now that would make it five yeah I mean he's got to be one
022of the one of the top goal scorers in western Mass with five goals despite the fact that really Esau Meadow throughout the season this year on the boys side they haven't scored a lot of goals in any particular game but Joe did make super seven yeah yeah I mean he's clearly one of he's recognized as one of the best attackers in western Mass um you know he's a super seven so he's recognized as one of the best seven players um in western Mass coming into the season and he has not disappointed his fans he has not disappointed his family and he is not disappointed as friends well what did you see I was looking in the other direction what happened there so we well one game Megan we're I think where the girls were playing
023and uh Jamie I had announced in the booth that you made you had made a cross and Mac had made a great header and it looked like it was going to go in the goal and it actually hit the top of the goal and I called it from the booth the referee well here we go again balls had it down a lot of physical play a lot of hand shoving hand touching couldn't get that one and the fans are screaming from the stands to the referee to call holding on that penalty on that play didn't happen but he saw him that it was up to nothing and sometimes it's really hard to tell for the referees whether the ball hits the top of the actual soccer goal post or whether it hits the the crossbar
024of the soccer goal of the uh of the football game good shot there and really off good opportunity five minutes I'll have to put that one in the goal a little bit of black with a defense back there by by not challenging the player right I mean it was a really good shot it was an unsavable goal by by the East Longmeadow goalkeeper guardsca despite his height despite his strength and his jumping ability it kind of just went in that one spot in the goal that really no goalie can save [Music] East London was about to really open up this game with a two-nothing lead you know that third goal is so crucial to give you a demanding lead but minnichog showing its resilience comes right back it's now only 2-1 with 22 minutes remaining
025Minnesota Golden number 44 Joseph 35 Chad Santos with the assist a really good ball here out to minitrog on the right hand side plays it through and gets oh good play good turn there that one almost against guardsman [Music] number 19 right there Philippe with a physical play in the middle of the field I mean look at this I mean there's just a lot of pushing and shoving in the middle of the field a lot of arms a lot of arm holding a lot of grabbing of the shirts grabbing of the bodies and now we have a potential injury on the field we're going to get a timeout 21 minutes and 14 seconds remaining until last time too um I think so far I think you kind of pointed it out right in the beginning
026I mean what you witnessed in the first 10 minutes is just really physic really physical play out there but I feel like all boys soccer yeah I mean it can be some games are some games are a little bit quicker a little bit a little bit less physical but this one here there there does seem to be a lot of a lot of jab and a lot of shirt holding a lot of grabbing and touching with the hands it's not just kind of a you know [Music] thank you we're gonna have Number Four Past quality the ascoli sends it up a big bombing kick there this is exact oh we've just over the head oh no I think the goalie was going to be able to grab that one there Megan right and instead it
027looked like the minnetrock player kicked it out of bounds and uh corner yeah now it's a corner we've got a Nissan Meadow corner kick and an opportunity here for East Longmeadow to uh to put on another set play kind of like how they scored on one of those other goals it's like that stated valves Megan yeah and a really good play there by minitrog the truck Flair got in front of that one turned what was going to be you know a ball that looked like it was going to go over the top in a 50 50 ball into nothing more than a you saw metal throwing another throw in here along the right Sidelines by East Longmeadow touches it in comes back play here and back to the middle 20 has that one you can
028get done again a little bit of a turn over there played back though we saw metals able to maintain possession keeps it getting some dribble here ball comes through to number three Zach Richard Here Comes Fresno he's a good play there he's going through a good opportunity he had two players on him there just maybe one make that one happen but another really good opportunity on a through ball good head ball there that was close to a major Collision in Keegan done again bottom is going to swing over to number eight it doesn't number three Zach Richards has it he's got it he's got a little space right there he gets pushed to the side yeah kicks it off of somebody's back it's carried through number 20 is going to try to save this one
029plays it back again might want to go back to the goalie they're all Good Foot Skills [Applause] [Music] be able to get it out kind of an interesting experience I probably shouldn't have done that yeah what's it like when you're out there you've got the you're out there playing and the goal he's communicating with you but you know who's kind of the leader in the back I've always kind of got the best look at the field and kind of see everything so you don't want to not listen to the goalie and then have it lead into a goal right handball minute plays it instead of plays plays it through quickly number 13 has it plays it out to the side number 13 is Luca chevelli plays it through here the left hand side sit past
030the Minotaur bully now to try to save it save it probably came out a little bit too early on that one has been successful with that play most of the night but that one didn't work Megan what'd you think that was a great goal s what about the what about the Passover house is very good too yeah the pass was really what set that whole thing but then this but then the speed to get it through hey from Joseph McCarthy from Joseph there you go Napoleon I didn't hear you Megan yeah great way to come out there assist got them both yeah it was great everyone here we go again just a little bit too hard there just slightly too hard on the through Ball by Chase Evans Just a Touch Too harder Fresno would
031have been walking in with another goal [Music] yeah tried to get it through here we go number Eight's got it they're gonna play it back set this one up it's played a kind of a lofty one to the back plays it through East Longmeadow has it underneath there really wasn't spaced but a bad pass by Wilbraham minnichog over here number 10. Joe Fresno's got it good ball to number eight good slide tackle there but it doesn't go out of bounds number eight Jack Walsh has it it goes out of bounds finally we're gonna get a corner kick here not sure who's gonna take it but this is definitely going to be a set piece by Esau Meadow they've had a lot of success with this most of the night last time on a play like
032this Megan there was a little oh here we go they just don't cover the simple gets put through and kicked back again what'd you think of that Megan well at least they got it out okay we're gonna get a set piece here by we're gonna get a set piece here by each one Meadow coming in from the corner kick raises his hand puts his right foot into it gets it out to about the eight yard line swings out it's touched just a little bit too far yeah you hear the fans screaming from down keep moving red they're absolutely right on that flag you saw a couple of these full metal flares kind of standing around and watching he had a little more movement there of the body they would have been able to keep that
033one in bounds Megan it just seems to me that East Longmeadow is really apart from that one goal has really dominated the play here in the first half I mean to be fair it's technically yeah I did not [Music] always oh what happened um what happened in the last game they either tied or lost don't know but they definitely should have won that game so they're probably out for somewhat of Revenge now that's good to hear I was asking earlier some of the fans some of the people and the other people in the booth about you know what the match-up looked like because I really didn't know either I haven't announced the boys game and haven't really followed too many and people were saying that they were expecting it to be a a close matchup
034Phil Fresno getting a little break on the sidelines here coaches is talking talking oh some body blows feet are flying bodies flying [Music] wow that's true I didn't think he was gonna get that one somehow a left-footed swinging shot kind of looped into the middle got it on his foot put it on his chest and then it looked like almost needed or into the back of the goal to give me some metal a lead of corn well four to one with how much time remaining Megan 17. 13. it was 13. I think he said 13 and 17. no it was 17. so that's Joe yeah sophomore midfielder puts that one you must know him in the back of the net really good ball control skills there Megan on that goal usually you see in a
035situation like that where the balls kind of bouncing around people try to do things too quickly the number 17 Joe mccolgan with the assists not rush everything there just kept it under control and put it in the back of the net it's really really impressive for a sophomore to show that type of composure in that type of situation and that's why he's on varsity and play great player little switches Fields here over to number eight Jack wall she's really having a great game I mean this is the first time I've got to see Jack walls play but he's really been showing some great Foot Skills Megan on front number five Angela very gonna throw this one in as East Longmeadow makes a couple of substitutions [Music] there got it out of you know he had
036Fresno there who was really applying some pressure I think that's Fresno yeah it is Fresno is going to be taking the corner kick here and like I said before East Longmeadow has just been has really been doing good on these plays if he kicks it in ball comes back it goes to president this is going to be a shot for sure a low liner for the middle and into the back of the neck called a Wilbraham player Russell actually might get the goal on that one because I don't think that that's anybody from East Longmeadow we'll have to go back to Hellcat regardless he thinks it says I think he's trying to take credit but lcat will be we'll have to look back Jamie we're gonna have to get that one sent to us on
037video at the end of the day was it number eight what four from ten so has Wally Dia Scully either got the goal or is that the goal credit for the goal we're gonna find out in the video well you know it was my first time announcing and the sheet says Pasquale you know I I did hear the nickname Patsy I'll give him patches number four Patsy disgoli with the goals [Applause] see what happens oh yeah he's just gonna get touched up and it does and Fresno's got it he pulls it back still maintains possession oh good try there this is going to be a touch to the middle good play good composure Here Comes Oliver again with the left-footed swinger this one guy see the difference on that one it just kind of floated
038in the air you know [Music] oh yeah this is a very exciting game there's just been so many offensive options Bowl through the legs on goalie and this is an offensive performance that we have not seen in decades in a soccer game I have been watching East Longmeadow soccer for six years and I've never seen six goals in a game no matter who they're playing and piece of metal has six goals in the Hat oh it looked like number seven but it was number three Zach Richard puts that one in the goals Joe mccolgan number three Zach Richard s that was a set off for them and now they're kind of putting it together yeah some of these goals and insert them into some other games down the road but this is just something that
039you know again I mean they're excited they're on their toes now [Applause] they're just playing inspired soccer I mean look at them running I mean they're not stopping when the ball gets a minute shot player's foot they're just flying not giving them any opportunity good play there by Nissan middle Defender to get that ball out of bounds and just kind of reset up the defense and Chuck gets a throw in down they're a good play oh yeah oh you try okay there goes Jack Walsh flying down the sidelines good play here comes over and you got number three gets touched up oh just off sides there but a really good try you had Zach Richard with a really good try there tried to sneak it over the top two Joe preszel who would have been
040one on one but he was just slightly offsides good call by the referee it did look like he was offset that's a handball no that's a shoulder I don't know a little bit more handy to me more army than it was shoulder but I always go back in the old cat replay and take a look and see who's right all right I'm gonna say I'm gonna go that that touch was below the elbow all right we have to take a look at it no fighting but we can bet on it okay nothing like gambling on lcat [Music] maybe we could get MGM as a sponsor of lcap Productions that would be great here you go again I mean they're just on their heels right I mean you can see minnetrock they're just on their heels
041yeah well the fans are chanting they're asking for some subs to come in the game that typically don't get any playing time and they're already championed for an early year if the match yeah that's risky there's still 50 minutes left in the game yeah we got eight minutes left in the first half in this dominating offensive performance by the East Longmeadow Spartans got some Spartans here gonna get a rest after some great playing time Shane McCartney gonna get a little break number eight Jack wall she's been just flying all over the place gonna get a little break here oh and he has it big truck only has it I'm a little surprised by this kind of bang here because there's nobody else jog that was up there the goalie there maybe one of the slow
042things down a little bit I know they gotta score a lot of goals to get back in this one but you kind of have to set it up you're not going to get you can't get six goals back in one play they're probably gonna get a rough talk into it at halftime though yeah you ever experienced that what's that like not at all I mean what would you say if you were the coach of minitron at halftime to your players right now what what's something that you would say or or as a captain this is just uh I mean they're up five goals in the first half that's a little tough to come back from yeah what do you I mean what do you think your coach I mean you haven't had that experience yet
043but what do you think your coach would say in a situation like that my coach would probably let us handle it our selves but the captains handle it yeah you know it's not a bad idea actually if you have some strong captains just kind of pull the team together as opposed to the coach doing doing a lot of yelling you know I mean you can see just the high level of confidence playing right now except for that play right there it looks like the fans might get what they want here oh they are looks like he's gonna get maybe his first playing Time of the Season it seems like a few minutes left so this is really good to see I mean they're up by five goals they're getting some players in the game to
044get them you know get them get them some experience I mean Marco's only a sophomore and he is yeah oh maybe you've got the wrong oh yeah senior he's wearing your former brother's number number 22. and my current location for a former brother your former brother former cap former captain or co-captain of the East Longmeadow Spartans boys team let a great great series of players too here goes Marco Marco's got it he's going to touch it here he's going to play it along to number six Shane Smith who had it taken away and it just kind of gets booted up to number five Angela varies got it Marco plays it through the middle nobody home there then a chalk takes it kind of guides it up and really easy play there for the Eastlawn metal
045Defender to number seven Tyler Wrecker The Jock Takes Me Away try that was a good touch oh really good play here it's going to get touched over the top using his arms pushing and shoving his way through good point out by the Minnesota Defender yeah really good control here by Minnesota see there number 19. stuck right from there in the middle Fleet bottom Phillips all right you would know better than me [Music] they set this one up this is a very set play it's coming back to Oliver he's just gonna blast that one as he should and right into the box just a absolute astral Blaster into the bottom left-hand corner of the net on a set playoffs I mean so I'm just really I've just never scored and the sisters from Joe Russell yeah
046I mean just put together I mean I think that's what it was right yeah I could have it wrong maybe it was Fresno who put it in no that was Andrew okay oh my God number 10 Joe president here since since my since Ryan was a freshman I had watched this and this is the first time I have ever seen coach serafino sit down during a game he's actually sitting down on the bench while the game is going on I've never seen that he's usually up you know usually you see kind of the arms folded sometimes stopping sometimes the face gets red when things happen for tonight he's in a lawn chair over here I've never seen anything like this he has put the assistant coach in control of this game I mean miniature folks
047minnichog is not a bad team they are not having a good night they are not a bad team this is just an amazing performance by East Longmeadow the beginning of this game was fairly even in terms of possessions for like the first I don't know eight ten minutes and then since then obviously it has been absolutely all over it's just really good to see this is going to be very inspiring for Eastland Meadow as the season progresses I mean they're going to be able to really look back on this at any time and say we can score really good [Applause] so we saw metal getting some other players into the game here as the half slowly makes its way to the end we've got a minute and 20 seconds a minute and 20 seconds sorry
048excuse me a minute 20 seconds remaining in the game he's still going through it there's just so much pressure on that ball it sneaks its way out of bounds is going to get a goal kick here with one minute remaining as they kind of Chase the ball down I don't think they really had to do that you see the youth on the outside that has some extra balls and Megan I don't know I think you since you've joined the booth it has been nothing but Eastland metal domination this might actually have to happen again you might be like some type of good luck charm oh there's only one there's only one way to find out come back another time oh wait that's Joseph that is Joe Nicole call there by the referee there's only 10
049seconds remaining here so there's really no chance that we talk is going to actually be able to score so I'm trying to control the ball don't get injured half cups are closed we're gonna take a little break here at El Cap we will be back in about 10 minutes for the second half of this dominating performance thank you foreign thank you foreign thank you and are back for the start of the second half for the Spartans Palmetto versus nitshop 7-1 yes folks you heard that right it is seven to one East Longmeadow going into the second half but dominating performance by East Longmeadow during the first half minutes on the sidelines during the halftime they were out there coach trying to give them some inspiring words Nissan Meadow I'm sure the coach of the in
050a truck player I would have found in some metal you faces it down it's going to be a corner kick from the right hand side I actually cannot believe that this is going to happen again I'm going to talk letting this happen again yeah that's crazy [Applause] that they just let that happen so yeah I don't know why they keep doing that coaching thing yeah I mean it just really seems like their players are not I don't know how you can't be ready for that it just seems to be the play that Nissan Meadows doing they just keep leaving it open creating it unbelievable opportunity had it now it's being trying to be cleared out throwing Jack Walsh is sophomore having a great game so far number nine throw it in here Samir throws it
051in good play there by police wide open on the side tried it he almost tried to sneak it over a little more on that kick it's still pretty open still open I mean what do you think Megan if maybe he's got to do like jumping jacks and wave his arms here it is now now he's chasing it down the sidelines looks like they're going to get another corner kick in it now for the first time it looks like that dog was running over there to cover that I don't know it's actually kind of funny oh oh and here comes Samira Collision there good aggressive holding his wrist a little bit they're gonna shake that one off and watch that for a second half aggressiveness see if those two players get into it later as they
052bang bodies there in the middle who's kicking this one Megan Zach Zach Richard I'm gonna give this one a ride with his right foot gonna try to curl it in on a somewhat of assemble way or not here they go against it oh they're give and go now he does just kind of set that one in didn't he yeah didn't get the cover didn't get that gift card on it to get that thing to turn a little bit more away from the goalie but over the top there Clarence got it yeah that's not a good pass right there Minotaur doesn't even look like they're trying though yeah I mean they kind of look like they've gave up just kind of jogging you know like they're I think the player needed to really kind of control
053the ball and try to try to work on a couple of them even [Music] play there by the miniature gold comes out and grabs it is Fresno down the left-hand side gonna take somebody on here one on one that's because one on two one on three good pass back and that is what try to avoid those long shots we want to get that driving penetrating a complete stop there oh look at that he just got completely taken out that's a terrible should have been a penalty I think maybe the revenue left for kind of the advantage play on it back flip kick back over to Shane one more time one more touch this is going to be a shot a little one-on-one play there a little Dipsy do substitute coming in number seven Tyler Tyler
054I'd like to give a little shout out to Colin Evans Chase's brother who I know is listening college and enjoying the match up here Colin Evans one of the great soccer players of a few years ago was it yeah now playing in college watching his ear kind of watching his alma mater here comes the race here speed all over the place got a one-on-one play here and just gonna get it out really good defensive play there right Megan how do you do that like what's the technique that you use when you're shielding a player I don't know just box them out yes or a quiet second half right looks like number nine from here on this game it's really getting ended you here on the sidelines by our very experienced trainer Diane is taking care
055of athletes for a year after year after year of keeping the fit keeping them healthy making sure close the game Jackson Gretchen I'm guessing brother of Tyler number 18 Ryan color coming into the game that's number 17 Joe mccolden comes out and gets a little round play turns the corners steps it back doing a little dance useful metal coming up they have it he controls it [Music] Keegan Dunnigan has a tried to get it up the field but couldn't it gets taken up here now it's going to be chased on the sidelines can he get it just can't get it there that's number 21 Jackson Russian tries to really stretch out almost splits trying to keep that one in bounds gets the throw in I believe a little over the top held on to the
056back but got it out of bounds number 20 done again playing some great defense there is calling for the ball number 19. Phillip who's been waiting on the sideline to get into the game left footed ball here a big swinger gets it up to about the 18. good defense batted out yeah right Megan exactly can't wait for that ball there you gotta kind of go get it foreign but there was clearly no attempt to play the ball referee got it right gives it you gotta like that there too this referee saw that went over talk to the player there was no injury that said hey buddy don't do that again or you're gonna find yourself a annual Penalty Box yeah played across and don't wait for that one but you know number three right there
057Zach Richard was looking for that one to go over the top on board got it on that one minute here comes you know it's kind of like the kick and run type here there's not been in this game quite frankly by miniaturize but kind of once they had a couple of passes here and there and then nothing and it ends up just kind of like a 50 50 ball in East longmeadows getting some players in the game number Junior midfielder McCarthy coming in some other players coming out Zach Richard gonna get a little break Shane's getting a break he actually over here we got Jackson Russian it's like Jackson's gonna have to play this one here get him yeah right off the back of Jack's field hustles back get into get into coverage defense at
058the top there not sure how to play this one off the shin and out of bounds chase them all down all the way to The Back Fence well Megan not nearly as exciting of a second half maybe you should have left and then come back what do you think yeah well I mean I think they scored enough I feel like more would just be and it doesn't even matter the max they can get is three for like the power standings or whatever that stuff is for the state power rankings it's a pretty little differential is the max so anything over that is really doesn't make a difference if you win by 10 goals or three goals yeah it provides the same state rankings yeah since they moved to that State ranking system kind of more
059and more important than taking on more importance than just the old old school or western Mass Champions right kind of a little bit of State rankings become more and more important [Music] this is just beautiful play right there one two three jumping in the back of their seats they go oh the collective oh from down below that was oh just a little bit wide but a good good passing and good ball movement with the three of them over there really fun to watch and see it's a quick movement quick footwork good passing skills it's like you know those are things that they practice [Music] play there just kind of kind of look like you Megan got the elbow up nice and high in the chest boom here we go oh my God Megan my question
060is is Eastwood playing football or is Eastwood playing soccer clearly a very aggressive player does he do wrestling in the winter I don't know I mean that was actually pretty impressive oh really good move there by number three for minitrog some great Foot Skills kids oh good God he's going down I don't know oh he's got to go on the ground he's got to go on here that's gotta hurt him yeah that's that's not that's not that's not great yeah all right well folks I think that one you go back and watch that one I know Catherine it could be Thursday he's okay how many I think all right that one that's about that's they call it they call that different things in different sports but either way it's a bell ringer we're gonna need
061a couple of minutes there or a ball ringer yeah it's something that could be there's a lot of different names for it but I know this I would be coming out of the game and taking a little break with a seven to one lead I feel like they're gonna let this one play through it seems like this might be uh I was wondering so I I kept the live up but I didn't put up like an edited version right I don't get that back to number 11 who seems like he has recovered Chase Evans Colin watching from home your brother kind of took one uh in a tough spot saw Mom down there watching Jackie Evans watching from his stands didn't look overly concerned although I would say between Colin Evans and Chase Evans nobody
062in the history of East Longmeadow soccer has spent more time on the ground flipping he was extremely fast extremely skilled very lightweight and when he got moving and grooving if he got bumped a little bit you know great balance but he'd give me some flips and still come back strong and score goals his brother took a good shot there bounce off of miniature and cats who's had a great game on defense [Music] a little break what'd you have in this game let's see back in the days early on yeah lots of his friends who's playing soccer with now used to gather I mean that's where it all starts you know way back when it fifth sixth seventh grade camaraderie and then it displays itself here on the soccer field clear tonight did you have someone
063on the benches sends it through here goes back to the goalie chases it down you gotta love the aggressive who is it headed up there Chase Evans going after coming down the middle oh that was gonna pass Wally on the slide Chase Evans going after it it kind of swings down to the end and it goes over the end line the lines harmlessly as Chase Evans chased that player down after passing did that slide tackle it almost worked out but now we're going to get a goal kick here as guardsman's gonna probably give it a ride for about 50 55 yards or five yards switching to the fields coach serafino by the way for all the fans is still sitting on the bench has not gotten up yet here in the second half arms are
064still folded gray hoodie on letting the assistant coaches get some experience actually coaching game making the subs calling the plays big booming kick over here yeah I got that foot up a little bit High enough and what constitutes a high flipping how high does it have to go above your waist it's above the waist it's an automatic High foot yeah I think that's where it is I'm not really sure foreign do you have any favorite penalties in mind over your four years not really no he's going to cross it oh good play there he's moving to the middle tried to pass it back there to Eastwood on the outside yeah we'll play there just kind of standing around as the ball was kind of making its way back I think he's really trying to get
065some other players to get a goals like and some other people that don't get as many opportunities which is nice to see here we got an injury we're gonna see if Diane has to hop in the cart I didn't see anything no it seems like a non I think it really just seems like a non-contact injury hopefully no problem but two miniature players kind of helping him off the field Diane out there a little checkup on the shock clear the fans are going to give a little clap his way over to the tree the tree table and the trainers gonna check them out we're really lucky to have somebody with time right Megan yeah well Diane what is it about Diana you love you love what is your greatest asset Jesus has a wonderful personality
066yep there we go we are off and we're making our way we're going down and they're trying to get it they're going to get it down either switch chasing it down a little body ball there we're going to get ourselves a quarter keeper and we'll get it's going to be a goal kick minute as the time is ticking away 19 minutes remaining in the second half of this Elite Crosstown matchup between miniature and East Longmeadow number 22 Marco Leonardo 's revealed after putting it up a solid performance there that one gets played up and through Shane Smith got that one off of his head finds its way out of bounds though with miniature flare small metal gonna get a throwing number 20 Keegan dunnington throws it back to Patsy puts it on his left foot
067into Chase Evans I believe over there the left-hand side it's really hard to see the numbers really fancy yeah number eight oh Tyler no Jack Walsh oh some really fancy moves there with the feet in the off season take some dance lessons moves like that played by number seven Direction he's also had a great game number 20 he had done again to throw it in yes to number 19. bill this one gets played up so now we're gonna have a little one-on-one here so for the first time and have some little action here by Minnesota dance steps this one gets played through it looks like it does get kept in [Applause] oh I think Eastwood's gonna do some push-ups I'm just gonna call that now just in case it happens I wanted to be on
068top of it I'll just try Eastwood oh got caught there Patsy's got it now it's up here comes with kids played out to the other side it's gonna get passed on so here it's in foot race now armlessly shoved aside by minute joggers growing 16 minutes many metal plays it down J sevens has it here it's played back down the sideline he's getting chased down that's it for the legs oh charges through and some tumbling some flipping looks like looked like some old school gymnastics there like on the mats on the ground I know a couple of guys falling down thank you back up again Patsy's got it Patsy's really making a run Cassie got it back and swing it back over here I think to number 20. it didn't happen though passing metal still
069has it Nissan metal still has it sure about that play right there right there just don't like that I don't like the long kick in like it's not even there's no power behind the shot I think I'd like to see a little pass there or even something kind of softly flipped up in the middle and then let the flares kind of battle it out to see who gets it that long shot with your hips not turned anything like that number 21 yeah we're actually getting a big round of applause makes his way out here comes Eastwood oh that's what I like this is so spectacular stuff I mean you don't get to see that every day at soccer I mean he is a very physical player yeah it's unbelievable just don't see it I know
070it almost no sport it's like number 17 Joe mccolden gonna make his way back into the game at some point those Sidelines here probably I'm harmlessly put in and it's awesome here [Applause] I know you see the difference here too knowledge is kind of taking his time I think he's full Meadow gets set up on him back on offense so he can kind of pick his spot where to kick it didn't really get that one up but it really did work out almost a good defensive play there by minute drive oh boy [Music] yeah please play there and I like the island that represent a little play on a little bit see who had the possession once kind of it didn't go completely into the East longmeadows possession to actually we need to whistle what
071do you think is going to happen here Megan direct kick or is this going to be a set play I say s [Music] [Applause] to put that one in can you leave it just missed the fans would have absolutely erupted and rushed the field I think you could go you can see it on the video the players on the bench were so excited to see that one maybe go in the goal he was so close I mean these are the types of types of players Megan they're at practice every day they're grinding it out all year long they don't get a tremendous number of opportunities throughout the season and when they get them and they get an opportunity and they take advantage of it it is extremely rewarding and that was just a great chance
072there great chance there for Eastwood really unlucky because he was in the right spot did everything right powered through it and it just got deflected at the last minute [Music] not not in this game but for their season Megan this is really this could be a downer I don't know I mean right yeah it is it is what does a captain do in a situation like this where you're a good team you're not a great team you're having a good season is kind of the same way and you go into a relatively I would say relatively even matters that it was probably a favorite in the game but not a huge favor and you just absolutely get blown out and what do you do to Rally your team or teammates to burn the bus around
073during the season as a captain probably just like team team bonding to get themselves closer off the field than on fields that I can get together on the field too yeah what like what would be a good what's an example of like a team bonding thing that that you've done that you think has helped you know that some other Captain has done or that you have done to kind of help bring one of the teams that you've been on together what's an example like pasta parties or I don't know going somewhere as a team like ice cream ice cream trip or something like that foreign goes to Rices or something like that for ice cream so it looks like you know East Longmeadow right now came into this game two three and two they're clearly
074just want to go four three and two minute shot they're gonna go to two three two looks like we're gonna be still have similar records but clearly this game is a dominating performance Longmeadow is going to move them you know it's going to move them certainly up the state rankings for sure because they're going to get some bonus points big an upsided victory kind of interesting though we saw eight goals in the first half Megan it's like basically a goal every five minutes in this half I know we got diesel Metals got different players in you know than they may have had in the first half but no goals really and not really not really a lot of great opportunities well there's been some good ones but yeah I'm gonna drag it back another five
075yards Ball's gonna be at the 30. number six Shane Smith has it Shane Smith gives it up to number 20. he is done again see here it looks like it's going to be a set play let's hope that he doesn't kick it too far so that the goalie can easily come out and get it he doesn't that's a very good play right there Jack's chasing it down oh [Music] I mean you do have to like it you gotta like the aggressive style I I don't know a long ride down the field it doesn't play here oh geez yeah it's fairly good it's starting to get a little chippy here [Music] [Applause] with eight minutes remaining in the second half score is still seven to one East Longmeadow putting that kebash and Hammer Down on a
076minute here as it sends it out stuck there a little bit too far of a pass not able to be handled there by a minute all gets thrown in by one of the players the truck has it throws it in bats it down touch specifically he's gotta be 320. glued it into the Snack Shack no pushing and shoving down there at the end really that would be awesome [Music] thank you because I have to drive to Vermont six minutes remaining time is winding down seems like Megan the ball's just been thrown in down here on this end about six seven eight nine times foreign there we go maybe oh yeah got it tried to play a little if I just play the Right Touch back that's a good word there swinging ball from right to
077left had some good curl on that shot yeah I made it saved it had saved is [Music] okay JD girls versus Jason absolutely kick I don't know they call goalkeeper they're going to call it a corner kick the right call looks to me like the people the fans are kind of screaming for either Jack erection to score or for Eastwood that seems to be what they're doing look at the same play again it's on it's actually kind of unbelievable are all the freshmen to try to make something happen in there that's gotta be it cool elbow elbow ball there is such a thing as available I think they're just trying to keep this thing going three minutes remaining game is really out of hand at this point it was out of hand as the second
078the second I've started so we leave there some traveling opportunity good ball there he's gonna have to get a swinger goes for the swinger its way through I'm not sure about that fight and there goes the proverbial field goal that one might have been a little wide right actually Megan what do you think I don't know that was just bombed Sky Norwood yeah yeah Buffalo Bills are still looking for something there up in the middle you last here no blast because passed over passed up this looks like poop [Music] oh good try I'm trying to save that one from going out of bounds is it two minutes kind of winds down here in a dominating the first half performance by the East Longmeadow Spartans led to a 7-1 victory not much action in the second
079half in terms of goals East Longmeadow really dominated play all throughout the game after about the first 10 minutes Megan morno entering the booth was clearly the difference there in the first half Difference Maker thank you appreciate you joining us no yeah but I have no idea it's okay minute remaining East Longmeadow players on the sidelines they're standing up they're getting ready to run out onto the field and head down and congratulate their goalie on a great game and gather themselves probably do a run across the field and then back to the sidelines to thank their parents their friends their families for coming out to watch they they stay so uh okay make sure nothing happens here in the last 12 seconds that just probably seals the deal right there really great game thank you
080Jamie thank you Megan thank you Mark for joining us all on the booth and we will see you next time foreign thank you
