John MacKenzie, who’s been coaching girls’ soccer for six years, e-mailed WSB to share the news with you that his current team is headed to the state tournament next Saturday and Sunday, after a big win last weekend – here’s the story:
The GU-12 West Seattle Cheetahs girls’ soccer team won the District 3 Presidents Cup on Sunday, November 23rd, at Starfire Soccer Complex in Tukwila. They will now move on to the State Championships in Burlington December 6th and 7th. After tying their first game 2-2 they went on to win the next 3 games by a combined score of 11-0 with the final game being a 1-0 nailbiter. Coaches John MacKenzie and Cori Roed cited their tough relentless defense and speedy offense as the key to their success. “They are the most determined group of kids I have ever coached in any sport,” said Coach MacKenzie. “That is something that you can’t coach.”
Congratulations to the West Seattle Cheetahs!
