I have only observed part of the Holy Cross - Catholic game at the St. Paul's tournament. I understand that Catholic was missing a few players. The appeared to be playing the common 4-4-2 system. They moved forward, aggressively as a team and with good speed, quickly get numbers up into the offensive end. They passed well thru the midfield with a mixture of short and long balls. A well organized defense will be a must. On the flip side, in this game Catholic seemed vulnerable to fast counterattacks ... that is how Holy Cross had the most success. In this game Catholic had the majority of the play, but Holy Cross found the net more times. A fun game to watch. Good luck to all teams in the playoffs.

To be fair to both teams, I should also remark on Mandeville's team as I also saw part of their games in the same tournament. MHS had a very solid defense. Their goalkeeper, although not large in stature, reads the game well and has very good technique. MHS played a very possession oriented game ... in my opinion almost too much so. A team with good skills, however, one that needs to take a few more chances in going to goal.
