The Boston Massacre can be reenacted on Wednesday at 1 p.m. at West Gym Field when the men’s soccer team hosts Boston University in the semifinals of the America East conference tournament. The Bearcats won the regular season title, losing only one game in AE competition, but guess at whose hands the loss came? None other than the Terriers.
Tickets on Wednesday will be $2 for BU students and kids 13 and under, $6 for adults 14 and up.
Five Bearcats received All-Conference awards: Junior back Adam Chavez was named to the first team, while senior forwards Pietro Sgueglia and Ibrahim Yusuf, junior midfielder Matt Narode and redshirt freshman goalkeeper Jason Stenta were named to the second team. Stenta was also named to the All-Rookie team.
Head Coach Paul Marco was pleased with the selection of his players, but said “I thought Barry Neville should’ve been on the First Team All-Conference, midfield. I was extremely disappointed that our opponents didn’t see his presence within our team; our team surely does.”
“I thought Chavez was the best defensive player in the conference,” Marco continued. “I would’ve picked him to be the MVP defensively.” The man who did win the honor, Boston senior Zach Kirby, will face Chavez on Wednesday.
