U10 Boys win NASA Classic
The U10 Boys Navy team kick off their Fall season by winning the NASA Classic Blue Division. During the course of this extremely competitive tournament group stage, the boys ended up on top of the standings of Group B after 2 wins (3-0 & 3-1) and a 1-1 tie to advance to the final match. On the final game, the boys trailed NASA’s Manchester City team 0-1 almost the whole game, and with only 2 mins left on it, they were able to tie it up and send the match to overtime. No goals were scored in overtime, so the game was decided with penalty kicks. NASA missed one pk, while Macon United players scored them all to win 5-4 and start the celebration!
