Super Strikers!




Southern Indiana United's U12 Strikers landed a big catch by winning the recent Pike Fest Tournament in Indianapolis.

In its first game, it beat Dynamo FC Black 1-0 with a goal from Kyle Hercamp and an assist from Zach Yagle. It then tied 2-2 with Henry Co Dynamite with goals by Jacob Hedrick and Nick Davis.

A late winner from Parker Davidenkoff against Center Grove Clash ensured Paul Duckworth's charges a championship game against Fusion Navy.

Nick Davis scored two goals in the first 10 minutes to get Strikers off to a flyer. A third was added before the end of the first half when Alex Duckworth fired home a penalty after a Fusion player had hand balled in the box and was duly sent off.

The second half saw Fusion come back, but a Jacob Hedrick goal secured a 4-2 win for SIU.

Pike Fest 2008 was Pike Youth Soccer Club's 13th annual soccer travel tournament for teams in the U9 to U14 boys' and girls' categories. Games were played at Pike's facility, the Mary and John Geisse Soccer Complex, Eagle Creek.
