GMC soccer race could be fun!
For those local soccer fans out there, this year's Greater Metro Conference soccer race could be fun.
In a battle of perhaps the state's top two teams last Saturday, Marquette handed Brookfield East a convincing 4-1 loss in the title game of the prestigious Al Gusho Tournament.
Then last night in regular-season GMC action this happened.
Nick Cianciola scored with 54 minutes on the clock to give Brookfield Central a thrilling 2-1 win over the Hilltoppers at Quad Park. That improved BC's record to 3-0 overall, 2-0 in GMC play, while MUHS fell to 1-1 in league play, 5-1overall.
But then in the real shocker of the night, coach Eric Dale's Wauwatosa East team tied Brookfield East, 1-1. The tie dropped the Spartans to 1-0-1 in the GMC and 5-1-1 overall. The Red Raiders are 4-3-1 overall and 0-1-1 in the GMC.
Marquette (1-1) can't afford another loss, the tie could hurt or help the Spartans depending on what they do against BC (2-0) and the Hilltoppers.
Wow! And we're just getting started.

Look for Central and East's cross country teams - boys and girls - to have good seasons once again. The Lancers boys and girls were ranked third in Dan Murphy's JS Poll, East's girls were fifth and the boys were 10th.

With school starting, all the athletic teams will get going in the next 10 days.

We have started a new column in the Brookfield and Wauwatosa NOW newspapers called "AWAY FROM THE LIMELIGHT." It covers people involved in the local high schools in athletics who do a great job behind the scenes. I need ideas, so feel me to email me at tskibosh@cninow.com with your suggestions and why I should do a story on these people. I will need contact numbers also.
Thanks
Be a hit and have a ball
