Over the Labor day weekend, the PASC Force U15 Girls team was crowned champions of the Keystone Cup. It was a 2 day tournament that spanned 4 games of competitive soccer. The Force won their first game against the Pennsylvania Soccer Academy in decisive fashion, 5-0. Their 2nd game of the day was against a very aggressive and skilled PA Classics Elite team. Both teams battled for 70 minutes with the PA classics coming out on top by a score of 2-1. Day 2 placed the Force in a semifinal game against the 1st place team of the opposing bracket, the Richmond Kickers. They were undefeated coming out of their bracket. The game concluded with the Force on top by a score of 4-0. The final game pitted the PA Classics Elite against the PASC Force (a rematch of the previous day). This PA Classics team was a team of high school freshmen who displayed amazing technical skill with the ball. For 70 minutes the battle ensued resulting in a 0-0 tie; on to penalty kicks. PA classics up first had their shot blocked by the Force goalie. The Force buried their first shot, PA classics missed their 2nd, and with two more buried in the back of the net by the Force, victory was achieved (with a sigh of relief by all). Congratulations Force girls! As always we are immensely proud!
Over the weekend of August 20-21st, PASC Mutiny U13 girls travel team were finalists at the Battle at Hilltop in Limerick, PA. They won their first two games-first beating Pottsgrove Fury 3-1 then topping CVYSC CV United 2-1. This placed them in a semifinal game against the home team, West Mont United Union who, not wanting to lose on their own turf, fought hard against the Mutiny. The Mutiny shut them down, winning 1-0 to advance to the finals.
In the face of an impending storm, the Mutiny battled a very talented Penn Fusion Eagles team but narrowly lost in the championship game 0-1 as the rains came down in the 2nd half.
We are very proud of the way they played and are excited for the upcoming year!

Hare / Marko U13G Vipers - finalist at Battle at Hilltop
The PASC U13G Vipers travelled to Limerick, Pa this past weekend to participate in the 2016 Battle at Hilltop Tournament. The Girls had an outstanding tournament this weekend and finished as Finalist in the Premier Bracket!
The first opponent was Southern Chester County Soccer Association. This was the first time the Vipers were playing “large-sided” soccer. Both teams struggled with size of the field and offensive possession. A defensive battle ensued, ending in a 0-0 draw.
The second game was against Marple-Newtown Soccer Association. The girls play improved, along with their confidence, as they continued to explore the intricacies of large-sided play. Better spacing allowed them to start connecting passes and created opportunities to "go to goal". This led to a 2-0 victory.
A win and a draw on Saturday, set up a great challenge for the Vipers in their third game. The opponent was Methacton United Soccer Association with the Vipers needed a win to advance to the finals. Both teams played aggressively and battled to a draw through the first half. The Vipers turned it up a notch in the second half and everything started to come together. They pressured the ball to create turnovers and built strong runs of possession by connecting passes and good movement. This led to a 1-0 victory and a shot at the finals.
In the Finals the girls played FC Berna Legacy Black from NJ. This game was a real challenge for the Vipers. Unfortunately, FC Berna and the long weekend were a little too much for the Vipers as they lost the championship game.
Coaches planned to use this tournament as a measuring stick to assess where the girls are developmentally. Team play improved with each game. Just like the previous years, the girls have raised the bar and our expectations for the rest of the fall season and the entire year at U13.
We are extremely proud of these girls and all of their efforts this weekend!
The PASC Red Devils finished their weekend in a torrential downpour in Sunday's Final, but couldn't have their spirits dampened at the Spirit United Kick-Off Classic. The Red Devils won all four of their games (5-2, 4-0, 4-2 & 2-0) in route to the championship. After overcoming a 2-0 deficit in the first 6 minutes of game one, they rallied back for 5 unanswered goals to win 5-2. The final three games saw them outscore their opponents 10-2. Congrats!
The 2003 PASC Storm earned first place in their division at the Lou Ramos tournament.
With 8 returners and 8 new players to the team they are playing cohesively and are off to a great start this fall season!
They won 3 games (1-0, 4-0, and 1-0) which earned them a spot in the championship game! They fought hard in the heat to beat the CSSC Strikers 2-0 and to take First Place! Four shut out wins for this team! Great job PASC Storm!
