FIRE SC '94 Played up in the NSC CUP held at the National Sports Center in Blaine, MN. Playing in the U16 B flight and aided with 3 guest players from FIRE SC '92 the team played well and battled against some older teams. Game 1 the FIRE took control early and defeated Great Plains Spirit from South Dakota 6-0. Game 2 was a much different game. Playing a very tough hastings team the team lost 1-0 on a miscommunicated own goal. The team learned much from the game and would be ready the next time they played. Needing a win to advance to the CHAMPIONSHIP. The team faced a East Select tournament only team from Duluth, MN. Playing hard and working throughout the game the team won 4-0 and advanced to a rematch against Hastings. In the final Emily Papagapitos (FIRE SC '92) scored a great 1st time shot from the top of the box to give the FIRE a 1-0 win and another tournament SHIP!

FIRE SC '90 a mixed team of players from '92, '91, '90 and a few of the old timers '89's. The team played well and dominated every game. Game 1 vs Mankota the team took some time to score but won 2-0 and gave up only a few chances. Game 2 vs Eastside the scored early and often and won 4-0. Game 3 was a more difficult game against Three Rivers but a 1-1 tied helped Mankato to make the FINAL against the FIRE again. In the rematch fire scored two goals in each half to win 4-0. Many of the girls were sore playing with just 12-13 players for the entire weekend.

FIRE SC '94 travelled to Des Moines, Iowa for the 16th annual tournament last weekend in the snow and rain and played very well under the conditions.  Beating U14 C1 St. Croix. 1-0 in the opening game was great since it was a team that stayed at C1 as our team was demoted to C2 after last summer.  Game 2 featured team Omega Black from KS.  They had won the tournament last fall.  A 2-2 tie with many great chances by our team left us feeling good after a long day in sub 40 weather and snow and rain.  Game 3 needing a 3-0 win or better to guarantee making the playoffs and winning our bracket we played well and managed a 2-1 win against a strong Council Bluffs team.  We were all excited to hear that St. Croix had beaten Omega Black and we had won our group.   

Semi Finals we had about 45 minutes to rest, eat and warm up in the car.  We played Chicago Strikers, the oldest club in Chicago in a great game.  0-0 at the end of regulation and overtime.  We went to the dreaded shoot out.  GK Kennie "the midget" Frick literally stopped 3 shots and one went over allowing just one goal and Mehan Bolton and Jessie Rivard calmly finished great shots for us and we advance to the "CHIP" as our team calls it.

FIRE SC '92 attended the NOMADS SHOWCASE in La Jolla, CA. The team travelling to its first none midwest tournament played hard and found that life on the west coast can be warm and sunny.

Game 1 featured the Laguna Hills Eclipse Team that is from a very strong club in SOCAL. The first half was evenly matched as the Eclipse managed a goal on a great header from a corner kick. As the second half went on the team gave up a penalty kick and a late goal on a long rang shot.

Game 2 we played the NOMADS host club at 8:00pm under the lights. Again giving up a first half goal on a corner kick the team played well but couldn't find any clear scoring opportunities. The second half both teams continued to play hard and the NOMADS pulled away again.


Game 3 SPARTA from Utah was the opponent and playing the 3rd game in less than 24 hours was going to be tough. The sun was shining and girls seemed ready to play. After a sluggish start to the game the girls found some confidence and guest player Chelsea Klemetsen put home a rebound to put FIRE SC '92 up 1-0. The team kept at it and just 5 minute before half time Chelsea scored again on a corner kick scramble.

FIRE SC '90 with guest players from both '91 and '92 teams attended the Orange Classic Tournament in Ft. Lauderdale (FL).

Winning the first game 1-0(Mckenzie G FIRE SC '91) over Darlington Soccer Academy (GA).
