Flagler Palm Coast secured all three championships — boys and girls varsity and boys JV — in the high school 7v7 summer soccer league at the Indian Trails Sports Complex.
The Seabreeze varsity boys defeated FPC 5-3 on July 26, but the Bulldogs had already clinched the title with a tie against Matanzas on July 19. FPC finished with a 4-2-2 record. The FPC JV team defeated Matanzas 5-1 on July 26 to clinch the JV title.
The FPC girls Hotshots team went undefeated in league play to clinch the regular-season title on July 19 and won the championship playoff game on Saturday, July 26, with a resounding 12-2 win over Matanzas. This is the second year in a row and the third time in four years that FPC won the girls league title.
“I think there were good games and good opponents. We definitely had fun and played out,” FPC rising junior Ivy Chen said. “I feel like (the summer league is) good conditioning because we're under the sun. And we're all learning to play together, learning to play when we're tired. We're all coming together before the season starts.”
Said fellow junior Hailey Sammons: “We’re learning to pass more and just trust our teammates. You also get to see what some of the competition is going to be like for the high school season.”
The Matanzas girls had a 5-2 record in league games.
“The girls played a great 7v7 season,” Pirates coach Scott Crooke said. (The league) was structured really well with good competition. It's good to get out here in this kind of heat, compete in this element and play together. And the girls have fun doing it. Some of these girls have jobs, they take vacations, so it’s just been nice that they're willing to show up and play in the summertime on these early Saturday mornings or Friday evenings sometimes.”
