The current and defending Philadelphia Catholic League and City Champions are proud to present its senior class and their continued success upon graduation with announcing what college they will be attending. While the continuation of the success and championships for the North soccer program is important, our most important goal is trying to positively shape lives. It is the coaching staff's mission to bridge their adolescence into adulthood with college being the primary tool. With fanfare and applause, below are our seniors and their destination in the fall: Carl Essenthier - Chestnut Hill Pat Greer - Chestnut Hill Mike Gridzik - University of the Sciences Jim Griffen - Bloomsberg Joe Nean - Drexel Mark Pugliese - Chestnut Hill Nick Stangler - Gwynedd Mercy Congratulations boys, continue to make us proud, Fablio! |

North Soccer Golf Outing a Huge Success Posted: Sunday, April 26, 2009 at 17:51
A sold out crowd of North Soccer Alums and friends gathered yesterday at Juniata Golf Course to participate in the 18th Annual Golf Outing that helps YOUR program remain the gold standard of programs in the City. A special shout out goes to Bob Wheeler, the owner and operator of Juniata Golf. Bob, a retired police veteran has turned Juniata, once consider the doormat of City owned courses, into one of the best values around. The course is green, the greens are in great shape, there are cart paths and a heart warming memorial to Police officers near the 17th tee. The club house can hosts a couple hundred party goers and has a bar, flat screen televisions along with knowledgeable and friendly attendants and assistants. Once again, a North guy doing great things in the neighborhood. Thanks to all who attended, the weather was spectacular all day long. We teed off about 8:30 AM and ended the day about 4 as Jerry Brindisi carved hundreds of roast pig sandwiches for the folk. We are working on a North Soccer Day in Wildwood this summer. Tentatively, we are targeting June 27th, a Saturday, possibly starting at 4 PM. This is Beach Blast weekend, so many of our colleagues and friends will be at the shore. Stay tuned for more details. |
