Brief: Brandeis F.C., Stan Ree win intramural soccer championships
The Intramural Outdoor Soccer season came to a close on Thursday night when Gordon Field lit up with excitement surrounding the men's, women's and co-ed championships.
In the first game of the night, the Men's Championship, the International Business School Men took on Brandeis F.C. in a game where the competitive nature of the two teams preceded them and it lived up to and exceeded the hype.
Led by captain Carlo Frank MA '13 and an incredible cheering section, IBS took the lead early in the game, but Brandeis F.C. recovered and tied it up on a great goal by Ben Berson '15.
The game went in to overtime after regulation ended 1-1, but the draw was short-lived as Brandon Kase '14. scored 40 seconds into overtime and Brandeis F.C. won the game on the golden goal.
The women's final showed great sportmanship and the Senioras won a close battle that truly epitomized the easy-going and fun-loving nature of the two teams.
Finally, in the co-ed final, Stan Ree came out with a vengeance and stormed to a huge lead that never faltered. Pat Seaward '13, an Intramural veteran and member of co-ed finalist Bingo Bango Bongos, reflected on his memorable moments in intramural soccer.
"Intramurals is a part of me and I hold it near to my heart. I feel like a champion every time I leave the field after any athletic season," he said.
Thank you to the staff and all of the participants this season. Next on the agenda is Flag Football and we cannot wait for another great season of Brandeis Intramural Sports!
