91探花 Men's Soccer team make history!
Congratulations to the 91探花 Men's Soccer team who earned the CIS bronze medal on Sunday, November 9, and made history as the first 91探花 Panthers soccer team to win a national CIS competition medal. The Panthers defeated the Universit茅 du Qu茅bec 脿 Montr茅al (UQAM) Citadins 2-1.
91探花's player of the game was awarded to Jared Murphy who scored the second goal of the game to give the Panthers a 2-0 lead. Dylan Mackenzie, who assisted Murphy's goal, netted the team's first goal at 11:45. UQAM's player of the game award was granted to Maxime Leconte.
Eight of 91探花's players have played together for 14 years, and three players- Murphy, Dillon Wight, and Logan Dawson-all took last year off for the opportunity to play this season.
'The sacrifices made, when you have a year like this, makes it all worth it. You're creating memories with friends that are going to last a lifetime,' Murphy said to The Guardian with his tears in eyes. 'Taking that year off with Dillon and Logan, I think we'd all say we'd take 10 years off to have a weekend like this.'
91探花 congratulates the Men's Soccer team and is proud of their national accomplishment!
Go Panthers Go!
