Spring season for Cantu Group FC has been nothing short of a roller coaster ride. Hopes were high at the beginning of spring season to run the table on division 6, but alas it was not meant to be.
Cantu Group FC suffered a devastating loss Sunday, May 23rd at the hands of Blue Team. CGFC lead going into the last 30 minutes of the match 2-0. But a confluence of mental errors and fatigue ultimately lead to a 4-2 loss. The loss sealed the team’s fate for the season as they will not advance to division 5 for summer, and instead are again relegated to division 6.
Going into the final 2 weeks of spring season CGFC sits in 4th place in their 6 team division with no possibility of moving up in the standings even should they win their final 2 games of spring. Following is the standings link: http://co-recsoccer.com/Sp%2710/Page11.htm
In retrospect, Cantu Group FC was bound to face a period of adjustment this spring as some players left the club, and new players were brought in. Although there have been flashes of brilliant play, it has taken time for this team to gel.
Summer will bring big changes for CGFC as they will be losing their starting center midfielder, Carly, for the entirety of the summer season, as well as starting right midfielder Beth, for all but 3 games. These will be big boots to fill indeed. The club captain has been scouting for new talent, but as of yet, no new player acquisitions have been announced.
Cantu Group FC’s next game will be played Saturday, June 5 at 1 pm at Twin Ponds Park in Shoreline. Come and show your support!
