The Mason boys’ soccer team finished their 2009 conference schedule on Tuesday with a 2-0 victory over Hamilton earning them their 2nd GMC title in the past three seasons. The Comets finished with an undefeated league record of 8-0-1 and overall mark of 12-0-2 with remaining regular season games against Loveland and on the road against Fairmont.
“As a coaching staff, we are extremely proud of our players,” said head coach Paul Reedy. Year after year the GMC is considered one of the toughest soccer leagues in the state. This season was no exception as the city’s top five teams were all from the GMC, making the Comets accomplishment even more significant. Mason is currently ranked as the cities No. 1 boys soccer team and No. 3 in the most recent state soccer polls.
This season the Comets had to fight through more than their share of adversity according to Coach Reedy. “Tyler Galley and Corey Campbell, our senior captains, have led the way on the road to this years title effort.” The Mason defense has shined this season producing 8 shutouts behind the Comet back line and the goal keeping of senior Dan Matthias and junior Cody Bowling. Senior Caleb Eastham is in the top three in scoring stats in the GMC.
The Comets have earned the #1 seed in the upcoming sectional tournament. They will face the winner of the Harrison/Princeton game on Saturday, Oct. 24th at Princeton High School. Game time is set for 1:00 pm.
