Patriot Alumni
Pictures 2008
This years' turnout hit a record 37 guys, despite missing 8 that had previously committed but couldn't make it. Kyle Arrildt knocks a ball back to avoid the pressure from Aaron Bulls. Billy Bush (1980), was moving so fast in the Even's defense, he often appeared blurry to the Odd strikers. Brandon Armstrong looks up to see which Even striker was actually making a run for him. Aaron Bulls (1999) takes his first touch inside to attack the Even defense... to Coach Klug's dismay. Aaron Bulls (1999) and Morgan Midgett (2007) await kickoff after the Even team tied the score at 1-1. Billy Bush (1980) beats Tim Ward (1999) to a cross to the back of the Even defense. Tim Carrier (2004) made his first appearence in the Alumni Game, consistently stoning Odd midfielder Pat Delaney. Carrier looks to distribute to his heavyweight front line. Prior to kicking off the 3rd period, Ed Davis (1988) and Phil Reeder (1980) discuss which condiments they'll enjoy on their burgers after the game. Coach Davis struggles for breath as he tries to catch the ball running away from him. Pat Delaney (2001) settles a ball before it goes out of touch. Delaney cuts a ball back on Jai Jani (2004). Jani and Derek Harris combined to effectively shut down Delaney after his 3 goal performance in 2007. Frustrated with his inability to break down the Even defense, Delaney resorts to hitting a long ball. Hounded by Jai Jani, Pat Delaney turns the ball back to get away from the Evens' heavy tackles. Desi Hannon (2004) surveys the midfield before delivering a pass. Randy Duncan (1996) settled in after a few minutes and sliced through the Odd defense for a goal, and nearly added two assists. Duncan pushes the attack for the Even team. Andrew Fach (2003) carries the ball from the back 3rd, looking the speedy (and young) Odd team front line. Mike Hermann (1998) receives a pass in midfield and looks to start the Evens' attack. Jai Jani (2004) steps in front of Chris Wetterman (1999) to steal a ball. Jai Jani (2004) looks to switch the ball into the run of the evasive Joe McNally (1996). Roberto Arjona (2000) steals a ball from Mike Kozlowski (1981) and looks to serve into the Even target players. Sean Murphy (1980) takes a touch away from Odd midfielder Randy Thomas (2001). Steve Hermann (1995) serves a cross into the streaking runs of the speedy Odd attack. Steve Hermann plays a 1-2 out of midfield that began the run for his goal that gave the Odds a 1-0 lead. Tim Ward (1998) looks to play into a run by Aaron Bulls as Matt DuPreay (2008) pressures. Tim Ward (1998) runs at Kyle Arrildt (2008) and tries to create a shot at goal. Vijay Jani (2007) takes space in midfield and puts the Even defense under pressure while Nick Badallion (1993) looks on. Chris Wetterman (1998) switches the ball from sideline to sideline as a streaking Pat Delaney moves in behind the Even defense.
