Gloucester Fishermen Boys Varsity soccer update

Posted on by Catherine

Gloucester for the Win! Final score 8:2. GHS Boys Soccer (Div. 3) beat Malden (Div. 1) October 28, 2023.

photos: snapshots of the Senior Celebration — 11 players!–and pregame scenes from the stands.

The Fishermen were led by six seniors in the starting line up: Gino and Dom up front (both scored hat tricks); Cole and Brendan in the middle; and Leo and Benji in back. Looks like the Fishermen are going to the playoffs! The last game of the 2023 season is an away game* on Monday October 30th against Saugus. Heading into that final game, GHS Boys Varsity Soccer 2023 season is 13-3-1. Northeast ranking reflects the success of the team’s defense and offence. A proud parent explained, “Goals allowed is huge. The 2023 team only let up so many goals vs. how many goals we scored all season. In 8 of the games only 1 goal was allowed. There were 3 shutouts by the defense and goalie.”

*This often means the varsity girls soccer should be at the home stadium. The JV team had a game at the same time on another field. Good luck to all the GHS Fishermen fall sports teams!

College Sports Soccer signing! Robert Mugabe Kansas City Christian College #GloucesterMA athlete

Posted on by Catherine

Education and soccer are important to Robert Mugabe, a former Gloucester athlete finding his way to higher education and a soccer team. After taking a gap year last year to sort through some recruiting options, one of the college coaches that was most impactful and circled back to support and encourage him was in Kansas.

Mugabe is excited to announce that he signed with Kansas Christian College DII which competes in the National Christian College Athletic Association (NCCCAA). He is thrilled to begin this new chapter.

“This morning I had my second college practice. School starts on Monday. The first game is August 30th: Kansas Christian College VS. Bethany Swedes.”

UPDATE: Follow the KCC Falcon team Facebook page which provides links for live watching each game

Mugabe will play up for the Falcons wearing #22 as he did for Gloucester High School varsity soccer, Cape Ann United, club teams, and Fisherman Youth in middle school. One of the perennial leading scorers, his speed, skills, strength and drive will take him far.

Good luck to Robert and the Falcons!

Sports Film Review

excerpt from review of “Colin in Black and White” directed by Ava DuVernay:

“…The drama then transitions to Kaepernick talking about his idol, Allen Iverson. At a young age Kaepernick wanted to have cornrows like Iverson but after many people compared him to a “thug,” and called him “unprofessional,” he deferred. In the show, Kaepernick expressed that cornrows represented the culture in his blood and that it was unfair how he was profiled.

An extensive part of the drama depicts Kaepernick’s choice between football and baseball. Kaepernick was talented and gifted in many sports but his best sport could have arguably been…”

Beautiful New Balance Field / Newell Stadium and O’Maley grounds #GloucesterMA public schools

Posted on by Catherine

Wish my phone captured the surreal beauty of the fishing boats floating past the field goal, heading to the cut. Prettiest stadium for spectators in Massachusetts.

Picturesque setting and buffer slope designed like natural  amphitheater for the track and field at O’Maley. The track needs work and the field needs filling/leveling of some troubling holes. To left out of field of view: ball fields and booster funded snack bar shed and restrooms (could be open – gross to see teams head to the trees straight from the bus)

Elementary school campuses are lovely, too. Snapshots of a few:

GHS boys soccer banquet at the Elks at Bass Rocks and booster raffle winners

Posted on by Catherine

Beautiful event January 3 sponsored by the GHS boys soccer boosters, with delicious food from the Causeway and great soccer swag! Graduating seniors acknowledged their amazing play off and final soccer year as bittersweet. Congratulations to the players and coaches and thanks to the parent volunteers, especially Chris Mac. Coaches for three teams are: Armando Marnoto, Drew Sidell, Marcus Trejo, and Jason Rutkauskus.

From Nick Curcuru Nov 6 article in the Gloucester Daily Times:  “Gloucester finishes up the season at 12-5-2, its highest win total and deepest postseason run since 2007, when the team advanced to the Division 1 North Quarterfinals with an identical 12 wins. Despite the tough ending, Marnoto had nothing but positive things to say about his squad. “This is a special group, one of my favorites and they were a pleasure to coach,” he said. “I’m really happy with the season these boys put out. These seniors took their lumps when they were freshmen and kept improving to end up as one of the final eight teams in the bracket.- Gloucester Daily Times]
