Wendy D. was the recipient for the Green Team and Madison H. for the Gold Team. These awards were followed by the awards voted on by the players themselves.

The Most Improved Award went to Naomi M. for the Green Team and Carly T. for the Gold Team.

Last, but certainly not least, the Most Valuable Player Award went to Olivia R. for the Green Team and Harsheen M. for the Gold Team.

Coaches Hutton and Conroy (Green) and Andelman and Dougherty want to thank all the parents for supporting the teams and especially the team parents, Sandy Epstein (Green) and Amy Friedman (Gold) for all their hard work, too!

All in all, it was a fantastic season!

Dec. 8 Game Result: Shorecrest 4, Seffner Christian 3

Finally! Two enormous cheers erupted -- on the field and on the bench -- as the Chargers MD Girls Gold team had its first shot on goal and its first goal scored for Shorecrest in a road game at Seffner Christian on Thursday, Dec. 8. Breck T. had Gold's first shot on goal (three games into the season) and minutes later, Ashley B. became the squad's first player to find the net. Olivia R. (shots) and Camille P. (assists) -- on loan from the Green squad -- combined on two additional scores, one in each half. Caya S. (two), Kim B. and Olivia D. also had shots on goal in the game. Early into the second half, Breck T. also put a ball in the net, her point being the difference maker in an electrifying 4-3 final score.

Carly T., Hannah L., Julia G., Jessie J., Karli M. and Sarah F. worked extremely hard as strikers and midfielders and continually to demonstrate marked improvement in their positions.

In goal, Olivia D. stopped five of six shots with Jessie J. going one for three.

The defense was once more electrifying in the game with kudos to Harsheen M., Laura H., Wendy D., Elizabeth H., Karli M. and Madison H. for repeatedly frustrating the Seffner Christian offense and dramatically reducing the number of shots against Shorecrest compared with its game two days early vs. Sarasota Christian.

The Gold team's record is now 2-2.
