Keeping up with the herd: Girls soccer face Clarke in a ‘Championship’ game

Print

pauldarmstadter_girlssoccervsclarke_sports

Girls soccer faces Clarke County Thursday for the third time this regular season to find out who will be crowned champion of the Bull Run District regular season.  This match was not on the schedule, but both had thirteen wins and lost to each other once, so a “championship” match will be played tonight at John Champ High School.  This happened last year for both teams, and Mason came out victorious.

The Lady Mustangs who lost to Clarke one to zero at home in early April beat them four to one away on Tuesday night.   Claire Trevisan scored a hat trick and Ava Roth scored one.

If George Mason wins, they will have home field advantage throughout the Bull Run District playoffs and have an automatic berth into the Regional playoffs.

The Ultimate team gets serious

Print

pauldryans_ultimatefrisbbee_sportspictureAt the beginning of every year, Mason holds our annual Club Fair; however, one club at that fair has now become more than just a club.  The Ultimate Frisbee team, even though not sanctioned by George Mason as a varsity sport, has joined a league and plays different schools.

“The club was officially started by my good friends Huntley Campbell (junior) and Ryan Ogden (senior),” said senior John Glover.  “Then I took some initiative to push for a competing team.”

The students run the team and Glover coordinates all the games and practices.

“We usually get good turnouts (10-15 people) at practices; we have yet to see a great turnout at games. It is tough for most people because it is on Sunday, which is usually homework day, and a lot of people just have other commitments. I would love to start seeing more people who want to play come out though,” said Glover.

At practices, the team focuses on the basics: throwing, catching, cutting, and other helpful exercises.  Glover said that the team has had a couple fantastic practices and will be competitive.  However, the Ultimate Frisbee team is still struggling with having enough players at games and Glover is open to having any one come out no matter how much or how little experience you have had with Ultimate Frisbee.

“Anyone and everyone is welcome to play on the team. You don't have to be the school's top athlete, or be able to throw the disc 40 yards to play. It's all about working to your strengths and sticking with it, and you will be amazed how fast you improve,” said Glover.

The social aspect of the team also is a reason to join.  Glover said that he has met some great people over playing a game of Ultimate.

“If you are considering playing Ultimate, or just want to try it out, then you should absolutely give it a shot!” said Glover.  “If it isn't for you, then that's alright, but it is a great experience that I would recommend to everyone.”

If you are interested in playing for the George Mason Ultimate Frisbee team, please contact John Glover.

Keeping up with the Herd: Boys soccer faces resurging Manassas Park

Print

pauldarmstadter_keppingupwiththeherdmasonvsmanassaspark_sports

Tonight, the Mustang boy’s soccer team will face the Manassas Park Cougars away at 7:00 p.m.  The Cougars, who are one win behind the Mustangs, have recently had a hot streak by beating Clarke County 5-1.  In early April, the Mustangs faced the Cougars at home and beat them 5-1.  Since that loss, Manassas Park has been undefeated.

“We know that Manassas Park is a much different team now,” said Senior Captain Sebastian Umerez.  “I expect them to come pumped and ready to play.  I also expect a big crowd, because we are their biggest game each year.”

The Mustangs next home match will be on Friday versus William Monroe.
