Bowie stops Severna Park's playoff run in State semi-final.
November 9, 2008.
The Severna Park Boys’ Soccer Falcons season ended today with a hardfought 1-0 loss against Bowie in the 4A State Semi-Finals at North County. Bowie will play Perry Hall in the final, which beat Magruder 3-2 on penalty kicks after a 0-0 tie.
Many expected this year to be a rebuilding year but the 2008 Falcons proved the pundits wrong. Besides repeating as County and Region Champs, the team added the In-County Championship this year after going 10-1-0 in the regular season. The team finished the 2008 season with a final record of 15 wins (tying the record for most ever set in 1998 and 2007), 2 losses (fewest since 1994) and no ties, scoring 41 goals while giving up 11. 10 of the 15 wins were shut-outs.
The JV team, under the supervision of Coach Thompson, went unbeaten and ended the year 10-0-2 with 65 goals scored, 5 conceded and 9 shut-outs. The 2008 record for the entire Boys’ Soccer program is 25 wins, 2 losses, 2 ties, 106 goals scored, 16 conceded, 19 shut-outs.
The team also registered the program’s 400th win since its inception in 1969. The program’s all-time record stands at 412-156-25.
Congratulations to all players on an excellent season.
