Chargers Win Game 6 in Solid Form

February 6, 2004 – Soccerzone – Portage, Michigan

The Chargers played RJ/Denzo tonight, a team the Chargers have never faced before. The Chargers would be without goal scorer Marcus Schoenherr (Collections) and veteran Charger Leslie Stafford (IPDS), once again. Could the Chargers overcome again and extend their undefeated streak to 28?

The 10:25pm game started with the Chargers one man down for the first 8 minutes and fighting on defense to keep RJ’s from scoring. The team pulled together and held their ground against several attacks. A break came when Chris Young (Collections) stole an errant RJ pass and found himself one-on-one with the RJ goalkeeper. Young slipped the ball past the keeper to make it Chargers 1, RJ’s 0. The game remained 1-0 Chargers for the next 11 minutes until John Marucci (New Product) out maneuvered an RJ defender and put a shot into the net. Three minutes later it was David Olson (Collections) with a nice solo effort and shot into the lower far corner of the goal. Score at halftime: Chargers 3, RJ’s 0.

The second half began with the Chargers continuing the scoring. Three minutes into the half, it was Marucci again finishing a rebound into the net after a Young shot. Score: Chargers 4, RJ’s 0. Seven minutes later, with 15 minutes left in the game, it was Marucci feeding Olson for his second goal. The Chargers were now up by a commanding 5 to 0. The RJ’s squad fought back and got a goal three minutes later to make it a 5 to 1 game. With eight minutes remaining, Marucci stole the ball in the midfield for a breakaway, drew the keeper out, and put the ball in the path of Stacie Vezeau (Collections) who put it in the back of the net. Score: Chargers 7, RJ’s 1. RJ’s didn’t give up, however, and put a goal in within 40 seconds of Vezeau’s goal. RJ’s again struck with 3 minutes left on a nice girl-goal that just beat Charger keeper Keith Weitz (Dec Tech). Score: Chargers 7, RJ’s 4. Weitz made a nice save with a minute to go and Olson put the icing on the cake with 20 seconds remaining, placing a Marucci pass into the back of the RJ goal. Final Score: Chargers 8, RJ’s 4.

“Another very solid team win,” said Marucci, “both teams started off a bit flat and the game was fairly low energy, however, we did convert our chances and held them scoreless most of the game. Once again our defenders hustled well and beat them to the ball. Jessica Awe and Ken Fouts both worked hard again, as did Catie Lewis. Having David (Olson) sub in for Marcus (Schoenherr) helped solidify our attack, as evidenced by his three goals. Keith (Weitz) also made a good save late in the game.

The next Charger’s game will be on Friday, February 13th at 9:30pm at Soccerzone in Portage. Everyone is invited to come out and cheer on your Chargers.
