LSL News and Notes
2008 Season Complete!
The Lackawanna Soccer League would like to thank all the players, coaches, referees, and fans for a very successful 2008 season.
The girls teams continue to make progress in the state tournament and are learning to compete at that higher level. Valley View battled a very good Conestoga team and Mountain View was tied with Lewisburg deep into the second half.
The boys were able to capture five of the possible six spots in the District 2 Finals… winning two of them. Abington Heights lost a heartbreaker in overtime with District 3 power Fleetwood and Mountain View won its first round game against Catasauqua before falling to Camp Hill in the state quarterfinals.
In addition to a successful postseason, the boys also welcomed Old Forge into the league. Congratulations on getting your first wins!
Good luck to all as you move on to other endeavors, and we look forward to the 2009 season!
