Over-30 Final Set
Christos to Defend Crown Against Das Bierhalle

O-40 Semifinal match this weekend as well. (13 March) Cup holder Christos FC returns to the Over-30 final after eliminating Colombia FC 9:0 and will face Das Bierhalle FC in the title match scheduled for Glenelg High School next Sunday. Das Bierhalle had a more difficult semifinal challenge lead by two goals from Nico Garcia to defeat the Baltimore Kickers 5:2. Shaun Ostrowski, Chris Contino and Sean Scarselletta were the other goal scorers. The cup winner advances to the Region I Gerhard Mengel Cup and will meet the Tartan Devils of Pennsylvania West in the quarterfinals.

We have a single semfinal in the Over-40 Cup with Colombia taking on the Kickers after the O-30 final. The winner sets up a date against defending champion Christos the following week.
