Frigid Alumni Game brings out hearty alums

I wouldn't call it great weather for soccer...but 25 CHS Boys Soccer Alums converged on the Memorial Field turf tonight, braving freezing temperatures to take part in our annual alumni tournament. Participants ranged from the class of 1989 thru the class of 2019.

The Championship team was made up of the Old Timers (with the help of some '19ers).  The championship goal came in the form of  a golden goal- scored by the oldest guy on the field- George Thomas '00.  Thomas' team also featured the great play of Adam Castonguay, Matt Aucoin, DJ Murray, Jake Shapiro, Paolo Ruggeri, Avery Minkin, and Huy Pham.

Thanks for all who attended! See you next year.
