Boys League Teams
U9 Boys: Mechanicsburg Mustangs (Parent Manager - Norm Wilson)
U9 Boys: Mechanicsburg Sharks (Parent Manager - Dan Cahill)
U9 Boys: Mechanicsburg Thunder (Parent Manager - Dennis Moshgat)
U9 Boys: Mechanicsburg MightyCats (Parent Manager - Shane Flemming)
The MightyCats are a new team made up of mainly U8 boys. This "development" team will compete at the U9 League level at a lower division to gain playing experience at the League level. Year-round training and tournament play will be encouraged for this group of players.
U10 Boys: Mechanicsburg Wildcats (Parent Manager - Brad VanNostrand)
As the first year on 'travel' soccer, the U-9 Wildcats had a period of adjustment. Learning positions and determining the players for each was a difficult task but by the time we played in our Columbus weekend tournament we were rolling, beating each of the PA teams and tying the best team in our division (3rd place overall). This winning feeling continued through the rest of the season, culminating in two dominating performances on the last weekend of the season. From August to November this team came together as a group and the future is looking bright for these kids.
Most of the kids will stay active this winter, participating in training sessions and indoor tournaments. We are hopeful to have a team on the field for the spring session and will be ready to continue the winning ways. The Wildcats welcome interested players that would like to join us on our D-1 level team and they can contact the team manager about possible roster openings, tryouts etc.
U10 Boys: Mechanicsburg Cobras (Parent Manager - Frank Ruzkowski)
U11 Boys: MSC Wildcat FC 97 (Parent Manager- Scott Tochterman)
The MSC Crush made great strides during the Fall season and improved immensely with the assistance of our training partner, Supernova. Many of the players engaged in training during the winter and also competed well in Spring play.
U11 Boys: Mechanicsburg Falcons (Parent Manager- Tom Bashore)
U12 Boys: Mechanicsburg Renegades (Parent Manager - Mike Auriemma)
U13 Boys: Mechanicsburg Hornets (Parent Manager- Joe Drozynski)
2007 turned out to be one of the best seasons so far for the Mechanicsburg Hornets. They finished undefeated and took 1st place in the CPYSL U-12 Boys Division 1 Fall League. In addition, they competed in the Gettysburg Battlefield Blast, Dillsburg Dual Shootout and Hempfield Fall Classic tournaments. After the weather cancelled the Gettysburg tournament ending their playoff run, they battled back from an early loss in the Dillsburg playoffs to reach the semi-finals and missed the finals in Hempfield by a point.
They have continued their success indoors at Sports City where they are currently undefeated and are already poised to participate in a second indoor season.
U14 Boys: Mechanicsburg Chargers (Parent Manager- Billy Wirth)
Many members of the Chargers are playing Indoor Soccer at Sports City Harrisburg this winter (‘07-‘08). Due to the large number of current and past players who were interested in playing during Session II (January-March) of the indoor season, the U-13 players were split into two different teams (Chargers and Catz), with 10 players on each team. Despite splitting the talent between two teams, both teams have winning records. The battle for Middle School bragging rights, and the highlight of the session, was the game between the Chargers and Catz. The Chargers led 4-2 at halftime, but the Catz came back in the second half to win the game.
The Chargers are anxious to get back outdoors for the Spring 2008 CPYSL season.
