Senior Soccer Boys start the 2008 campaign

The senior boys soccer team travelled to SMU on Friday to participate in the annual ISA soccer tournament. In the first match, West Point Gray proved to be a worthy opponent, and the score was tied 0-0 at the end of regular time. The ensuing shootout, however, saw Brentwood emerge as winners. In the second match against Southpoint, the team intially fell behind before rallying to a decisive 4-1 win, with Nick Chapin notching a pair, along with successful efforts by Jaemok Lee and Eric Skoretz. The third game against hosts St. Michaels School saw a spirited match that was scoreless at the half, but the opposition were fresher in the second half eventually winning 3-1. Sang Hyun Lee scored the lone tally for Brentwood. The high work rate and never-say-die attitude of the Brentwood team was instrumental in a strong showing and should prove  invaluable in the approaching regular season. Tournament play resumes Saturday morning. Gord Horth
