Update from Day 1 MTOC State Tournament. Soccer fields at Progin Park Lancaster
Friday June 23, 2023
These tournament games are quick–each half is only 25 minutes–so they can be unforgiving. Not this one.
Cape Ann United’s first goal came swift and easy. Andrew Coelho was fouled by the keeper in the box resulting in a penalty kick. (From a distance it looked there was a yellow card.)

For the second goal. Charles stole on a transition & passed back to Brendan Anderton who lofted a sweet perfect assist to Dominic Paone for a great header to finish and pull ahead 2:0.
video clip goal 2
Scituate sniped from 40 yards out (it seemed long!) to stave a shut out, but it’s unlikely they’d have broken through CAU’s defense which maintained possession both halves. There were several shots on their goal.
Players didn’t stick around after the win. Afterall, they’re traveling back and forth to Gloucester since it’s Fiesta!
Two games tomorrow: Martha’s Vineyard then Stoneham. If those go well, Cape Ann United moves on to the semis and finals Sunday. This team is aiming for another State Championship.

Cape Ann United beat North Andover 2:0, Max Sperry in goal. Cape Ann United scores by Gino Tripoli, the first a tap in and the second a PK, after which he turned to the stands asking, “Dad, like that? Happy Father’s Day!” Sun broke after the game.
Saturday June 17, 2023
An overcast and at times rainy game. Cape Ann United defeated Masco 4:2. Max Sperry in goal. Andrew Coelho scored twice. Geremy Palacios and Domenic Paone (with an assist from Gino) scored one a piece.

GHS FISHERMEN ATHLETICS SPORTS SCHEDULE all teams-
Flip has earned the respect of high school athletes — teenagers — for many, many years. His demeanor and steady presence are a fixture. Some of his work behind the scenes helps operations like managing the equipment, uniforms and attendance. He knows all the players. If they are late and checking in, passing in the halls, or heading to the gym; — any greeting exchanged with Flip enriches the students’ days immeasurably. I’ve seen a GHS alum in his late twenties– I’m not all together sure he played a sport- cross a room to say, “Hi! Remember me?”, and brighten with Flip’s affirmation and brief encounter. It’s a sure and easy bet that on countless days when things were not going well, Flip has made a student’s day brighter.
The kindest gatekeeper ever, Flip is taking taking and recording temperatures, one of the new Covid-19 safety protocols. GHS Boys Varsity Soccer (a win vs. Swampscott) New Balance Newell Stadium Gloucester, Mass 11/18/2020

Gloucester varsity soccer is out in the first round of the conference series. Lynnfield 1 Gloucester 0. Gloucester Daily Times Nick Curcuru coverage accompanied by Kirk R. Williamson photos here
“…From there, Gloucester adjusted by switching to three strikers. But Lynnfield countered that by bringing back a fifth defender to clog up the passing lanes.
“We knew adding an extra striker would put some extra pressure on their defense,” Marnoto said. “And it did but they added an extra defender and when they won the ball they got it out wide. That gave them time to regroup and kept us from getting into our shape.” Both goal keepers were also a factor.” – Nick Curcuru excerpt

“The GHS boys soccer team is making a name for itself in the Northeastern South Conference, as Head Coach Armando Marnoto’s culturally diverse squad represents more than ten different countries.” – great opener by Joe Kibango
