Cyclones vs Tigers Preview







Cyclone Notes…Last week’s 2-0 shutout win over Woodhaven was the 150th official outdoor game including league, cup and tournament matches in team history. With her 20th victory (in 75 games) as keeper Deniz passes Jamie Reich (19 wins in 106 games) to become the Cyclones all-time wins leader accomplishing the feat in 29 fewer games. The shutout was the Cyclones 30th ever. Dana’s goal was her 76th. Alexa scored her 22nd to surpass Jamie and become the teams 3rd leading all time goal scorer. In a statistical surprise, it was the 1st time that both Dana and Alexa have scored in the same game. Alexa is on a hot streak with 5 goals in her last 7 games. Statistics aside last week’s performance was a dominant one a credit to every player on the roster.


Tomorrow’s game vs the Massapequa Tigers in Massapequa is a home game for the Cyclones. It is the first meeting of the 2 teams. The Tigers won their opener against Big Apple (another newly formed team) 6-2 and tied RVC 2-2 last week. The Cyclones are 0 & 2 against Massapequa having lost to the now defunct Mass Fire back in U-10.

Sept 24th- This Day in Cyclones History. In 2005 the Cyclones had to pull back after dominating the Manhasset Stars 5-0. Emily Strack led with 2 goals, Jamie added 1 and current Cyclones Anna Lin & Lisa Rosenstein scored their 1st goals as Cyclones.
