It’s a great time to be a Messiah soccer player. Both the men’s and women’s teams can call themselves National Champs… for the second year in a row.
Messiah’s opponents were held scoreless in both games as the Messiah men defeated Calvin 2-0, while the women defeated Wash U. 1-0. The men AND women were able to take home the trophy for the second consecutive year. This was the seventh men’s championship soccer team in school history and third for the women.
In the women’s game, Messiah controlled most of midfield play and the Falcons outshot the Bears 16-6. Amanda Naeher was credited with the game winning goal in the first half. Scoring is something the Falcons are used to as they have outscored their opponents an impressive 102-7 this season.
Although the men were no strangers to playing in the national championship game, there was one thing new to them, their coach. Even though Brad McCarty was not completely new to the program (assisted for 8 years), it was still his first time as the head coach. He got off to a great start with a 1-0 record in national championship games.
