Bedford 1 Monroe 3 - semi final

8-28-08
Bedford 0
Pioneer 4
We matched up well with Pioneer, but their experience and technique far outweighed ours tonight. With my boys still finding themselves as a team, Pioneer took advantage of a few mental lapses and capitalized on them. Unfortunately, against a team as good as Pioneer, you cannot afford to have mental mistakes. Playing well tonight were Peter Pae, Nick Kimmey, and Christian StammerJohann.

8-30-07
Bedford 1
AA Huron 2
"We led for the a large portion of the game, but the speed of Huron caught up to us at the end, and we could not hold off their relentless pressure. Just as with the game on Tuesday with Pioneer, we matched up very well with Huron, and the game could have gone either way, with Huron scoring the game tying and game winning goals at the 20th and 4 minute marks respectively. I was very proud of the boys work rate, and although we are not yet where we need to be, we are well on our way to becoming a strong team", coach Brazeau.
Playing well tonight were Travis Sharp in goal, Jake Henry, who scored our goal, Andy Backus, Micah Bellas and Kevin Karmol played well.

8-31-07
Bedford 1
Adrian 1 (reschedlued rainout)
Bedford dominated play but wre not able to get the win. "To say that the team and myself are not happy with the result is an understatement. We possessed the ball much better than in past games, but we could not find the back of the net on numerous scoring opportunities. Although out shooting Adrian by a wide margin, and having the better of the scoring opportunities, we could only put one behind the keeper, and that was from Josh Clark, assisted by Alex Pethke", coach Brazeau.
Playing well tonight were Travis Beczynski, Kevin Karmol and Eddy Turner.

9-6-07
Bedford 4
Carlson 1
Tonight's game was sloppy, but in the end wedid what we needed to do to win the game 4-1. Not our sharpest of game by any means, but a win is a win. Carlson played with a lot of heart, and I have to give them a lot of credit for their work rate, as well as the class that was shown by their coach and several of their players. Scoring goals were Andy Backus, Kyle Menzel, Jake Henry and Kevin Karmol. Playing extremely well tonight was Micah Bellas.

9-11-07
Bedford 0
Saline 4
Although the score is not indicative of the actual game, it is what counts. The boys went into half down 1-0 after a silly mental mistake, and played well until the 65th minute. Saline the scored their second goal and a beautiful 30 yard rip to the upper corner. After that we scored an own goal and Saline hit on another free kick to make the score 4-0. While we did have a few very good scoring opportunities, we could not put them in the back of the net. Disappointing to say the least, but you have to give credit to a strong Saline side, after all there is a reason that they are one of the best programs in the state. A little more mental focus and the game has a totally different outcome. Playing well tonight were Eddy Turner, Travis Beczynski, Mitch Cousino and Eric Thomas.

9-13-07
Bedford 2
Lincoln 1
Bedford won a tightly fought game by the score of 2-1. While we did have many other opportunities to finish and put Lincoln away in the second half, we just couldn't hit the back of the net. Lincoln is a very dangerous team with a lot of explosive offensive talent, and this game was a big win for us. The boys put together most likely their best effort of the season tonight, and I hope that they now see what their capabilities are and what they can achieve. Scoring for us tonight were Andy Backus and Josh Clark, and playing well were Christian StammerJohann, Micah Bellas and Jake Henry.

9-15-07
Alpena Invitational - CHAMPIONS
We ended up going 3-0 to win the tournament, in which we did not concede a goal. While we had numerous chances to score, we had a hard time putting the ball in the back of the net. In our first game we beat Tawas 1-0 with Jake Henry scoring.. In the second game we beat Tawas 2-0 with Jake Henry scoring again as well as Kyle Menzel. We played Tawas twice due to a scheduling glitch due to Elkton Pigeon Bayport backing out of the tournament. In the final, we beat Greenville 1-0 with Andy Backus scoring the lone goal. While I'm not particularly happy about our offensive struggles today, I am very happy that our defense limited our opponents to minimal scoring opportunities. On the day, we outchanced our opponents 34-6, which further emphasizes our pressure but no reward. Bottom line is the boys did what it took to win the games, and played strong defense throughout the day.

Tecumseh 4
Bedford varsity boys lost 4-1 to Tecumseh on Tuesday. Not much good to be
said about the game...The boys just flat out did not come to play. Jake Henry
scored the only goal.

9-22-07
Bedford 2
Chelsea 1
This weekend we played Chelsea on our annual community night. We won 2-1 in a game that was a tough fight for both teams. While Chelsea does not possess a typical strong record that is normally correlated with their program, they have some very bright spots on a young team. We went up 2-0 at before the half on goals by Josh Clark and Alex Pethke. In the second half Chelsea battled back with a free kick goal, and much to their credit did not give up. While we out shot and out chanced Chelsea, we could not put the ball in the back of the net as much as we would have liked, but still got the positive result. Playing well were Andy Backus, Josh Clark and Tyler Caery.

9-25-07
Bedford 1
Dexter 3
Bedford lostto Dexter 3-1. It was an interesting game because all four goals in the game were scored in the first 15 minutes of the game. While Bedford came out flat, they did settle into the game and produced some quality scoring opportunities throughout the rest of the game. Dexter showed why they are the Defending Division 2 State Champs with an extremely potent offense and composed defense, but our boys feel they could have had a better result. Scoring our goal was Travis Beczynski on a beautiful 22 yard rip to the upper 90, and playing well were Jake Henry, Eric Thomas and Alex Pethke.

10-2-07
Bedford 0
AA Pioneer 2
Bedford played very well but came up on the losing end of a 2-0 result. This was a 1-0 game throughout as Pioneer came out strong and scored in the first 55 seconds of the game. But the boys settled in, possessed well against the 3rd ranked team in the state, and did create some opportunities on Pioneer's net. Pioneer added an insurance goal with 12 seconds left as we were pushing up to try and level the score at 1-1 late in the game. All in all, I am very proud of the boys effort tonight, especially since we were without two of our regular starters, Andy Backus and Alex Pethke. With other injuries to Tyler Caery and Peter Pae, our bench was depleted, but I was extremely impressed with the play of our younger players, particularly Korey Pavlika, Eric Thomas and Kevin Karmol. It is great to see our younger players step up against a very tough opponent at their home field. Games like these show great promise for the future of the program, and I am very happy with the all around effort of the boys tonight. There is a reason that Pioneer is ranked #3 in state, but the boys did well to give them all they could handle, and unfortunately one small error derailed a possible upset in the making. Playing well tonight were Jake Henry, Korey Pavlika, Eric Thomas, Mitch Cousino, Travis Sharp and Eddy Turner.

10-4-07
Bedford 1
AA Huron 1
Bedford worked hard for a 1-1 draw. Normally, drawing against a very high quality side like Ann Arbor Huron would be celebrated, but we did not play particularly well. Ann Arbor is a very good team, and while I am happy with the result, we could have found ourselves with another notch in the win column if we could have finished our opportunities and possessed play better. Not to take anything away from the boys work ethic tonight, which was spectacular, but we created many of our own problems throughout the game. We went ahead 1-0 on a Jake Henry goal, but shortly thereafter allowed Huron to tie the score 1-1 with a defensive breakdown. Much like our game earlier this year with Huron(in which we lost 2-1 in the closing minutes of the game after leading for 60 minutes), we played very solid defense. But one small mistake against a team that is one of the best in the state tends to come back and bite you. Playing without three of our regular starters tonight, I was once again impressed with our substitutes, who are making a clear case for more regular playing time. Playing very well tonight were Kyle Menzel, Eric Thomas, Tyler Caery and Travis Sharp. Our record now stands at 8-8-2.

10-10-07
Bedford 7
Edsel Ford 1
Bedford took a decent 7-1 win on our parent night. Edsel ford continually played the offside trap as we had more than enough offside calls against us. But the boys broke the trap several times, and did what it took to put some nice goals in the back of the net. Scoring tonight were Alex Pethke with 3, Mitch Cousino, Andy Backus, Kyle Menzel, and Josh Clark with 1. There were many players with assists tonight, and that makes me the happiest of all. We were constantly linking up for 1st and 2nd assists which shows we were connecting well and playing as a team.

10-15-07
Bedford 0 Lincoln 1 (District)
Travis Sharp-outstanding in goal, Fellow seniors-Josh Clark, Andy Backus, Jake Henry, Travis Beczynski, Peter Pae, Alex Pethke & Christian Stammerjohan played well for the Mules.

Carlson 0
The Mulesout and showed many people what they had been hoping to see from the beginning of the season. They worked very hard and downed Carlson 7-0. I (varsity coach Brazeau) was very pleased with the teams overall work rate, and look for the team to build off of their success tonight. Scoring goals were Jared Bauer and Seth Rettig with two, and Caleb Bauder, Chad Miller and Dan Thompson with one a piece. A very well played game, and I am proud of the boys effort.

9-11-07
Bedford 0
Saline 4
While it was 2-0 at halftime, the boys still hung with Saline fairly well and did create some havoc for the opposing team. Saline has a strong team, but our boys are progressing, and they are not as far off as some may think. A little bit a maturity will go a very long way to making this group a good team. Playing well for the JV were Brent Christensen and Greg Pontasch.

9-13-07
Bedford 1
Lincoln 2
Bedford worked hard in the first half to gain a 1-0 lead, but came out flat in the second allowing Lincoln to score two relatively easy goals. Much like the Varsity, the JV has yet to find themselves as a team, and tonight a little bit harder work would have solved a lot of our problems. Scoring for the mules was Caleb Bauder, with Jordan Maruk, James Brobst and Nick Martin playing well.

9-17-07
Bedford 5 SMCC 0
While both teams are still in the process of finding themselves as a unit, there was some good soccer played tonight. My boys worked hard in spurts, and fortunately those spurts were strong enough to produce some good goals. While it is always hard for me to go back to the field I loved to play high school soccer on, I am proud that the boys did what it took to win. Being an SMCC alum, I would say the win is bittersweet from a personal perspective because it is hard to coach against SMCC when I have so much pride for the program, as well as respect for what Coach Rosenbrook and his staff have accomplished there. It was good for the boys to see where I came from, and they did not let themselves or me down with their performance. Scoring for us tonight was James Brobst, Brent Christensen, Korey Pavlika, Jordan Maruk and Jared Bauer, while Cody Pollins played a great game.

9-18-07
Bedford 0
Tecumseh 2
Bedford lost 2-0 to a strong Tecumseh side, but played better than the score would dictate. The boys had chances to even the score, but couldn't find the back of the net. Playing well were Dan Thompson, Sean Miller and Seth Rettig.

9-22-07
Bedford 2
Chelsea 2
Bedford jumped out to a 2-0 lead on goals from Jared Bauer and Chad Miller, but couldn't hold off a good Chelsea side and wound up tying 2-2. Giving up both goals in the last ten minutes, the boys took the tie fairly hard. However, they can take pride in the fact that did get a favorable result with a good team. Learning how to win is a huge part of the game, and our youth must study up. Playing well for the JV were Chad Miller, Sean Miller and Dan Thompson.

9-25-07
Bedford 2
Dexter 2
Bedford fought to a 2-2 tie against an unbeaten Dexter JV. Once again our boys worked hard to get a 2-0 lead, but saw it evaporate in the closing minutes of the game. While never truly happy with a result unless it is a win, our boys played very well for a majority of the game and can build on their performance for the rest of the season. While we still need to learn how to win, there were many bright spots on the field to be proud of. Scoring was Caleb Bauder and Seth Rettig, while playing well for the mules were Brent Christensen, James Brobst and Greg Pontasch.

10-2-07
Bedford 0
AA Pioneer 1
Bedford played valiantly but fell 1-0 to Pioneer. While Pioneer dictated most of the play, the boys did well to work for two very good scoring opportunities within the 6 yard box at the end of the game, but could not put the ball in the back of the net. Anytime you square off aginst Pioneer you know that your in for a battle, and the boys did very well to make amends for an early season loss to Pioneer 8-0. I think that this shows how far the boys have come, and that their hard work is finally showing tangible results. Playing well tonight were Seth Rettig, Greg Pontasch, Chad Miller and Dan Thompson.

10-4-07
Bedford 0
AA Huron 5
In the JV game, Bedford came out flat and lost 5-0. The mules were not focused today, and did not play nearly as well as they did against Pioneer earlier in the week. Playing well were Dan Thompson, Greg Pontasch and James Brobst.

10-10-07
Bedford 1
Edsel Ford 0
Chad Miller scored a great goal from one of the best buildups that the team has put together all season. Playing well tonight were Chad Miller and Greg Pontasch.

Bedford Soccer takes on England...
Here is an email I received from Michael Stewart, a referee at a soccer
tournament which Bedford took part in.

On Saturday 26th July, I was fortunate enough to referee a tournament which included your Bedford (who became Team USA for the day) taking on 5 teams who play in the top youth leagues in London.
After 5 games undefeated ( 3 wins and 2 ties ) they won the Division, they moved on to the Semi-Finals and won with a bit more class than the 1-0 final score suggested. In a tense final, Bedford took on the days hosts Hillingdon Borough and played with a great deal of tactical awareness and went close to scoring on a couple of occasions.
They were also kept in the game by some excellent goal-keeping. The game finished scoreless 0-0, moving to a Penalty-Kick shootout. It is very much a lottery in that type of situation and unfortunately luck was not with the Americans, as they lost out during the 7th round of kicks.
Despite the defeat in the final Bedford steeped themselves in glory for the way in which they played their soccer and were worthy division winners on the day. They also had arguably the 2 best Goal-Keepers in the tournament and scored the best Goal of the tournament from a well worked and practiced corner in the 2-0 of Pinner Albion in the division stages.
I have refereed soccer matches all over London and with the new season about to get under way here in the next few weeks, the tournament with Bedford has set me right up for another year of great soccer. I think that Bedford's season also starts soon, so if any of you out there want to watch some real emerging talent and see how proper "Football" is played make the effort to go and cheer on Bedford's Soccer team, they are a CREDIT to your community and nation.

MICHAEL STEWART (Match Referee)
