Teams from Southern Indiana United and Net-Surfers just fell a little short of qualifying for the finals weekend of the Indiana Challenge Cup.
SIU's U12 Strikers went into the competition in confident mood after winning its division in the Kentucky Select Soccer League. It had two wins in Evansville – against Hoosier FC (2-0) and Westside (13-0) – but it was the game against FC Pride Lawrence that undid Paul Duckworth’s charges, losing out 3-1.
Net-Surfers U15s also played in Evansville, and also came out the tournament with two victories. Jamie Ochsner's girls started well, with 2-0 wins over both Indianapolis Premier Soccer Club and FC Indiana North.
However, it came unstuck in its final game against GASC USF Real '94, losing narrowly 1-0, where a tie would have seen Net-Surfers progress.
SIU’s U17s traveled to Columbus for their games in Columbus with a couple of players out for the season due to injury.
Drew Starck’s team didn’t have the best of starts, losing to Fort Wayne Sport Kickers (6-1) and Sporting Indiana FC (4-0), but bounced back in its last game in style to beat FC Pride 6-2.
The four bracket winners in each age category progress to the Challenge Cup Finals, which will be held at Shamrock Springs in Westfield from June 12-14.
