THE MARAUDERS ARE BACK-TO-BACK CLASS 5A STATE CHAMPIONS!

INCREDIBLE!


April 12, 2008 - News:

The Marcus Marauders Football Club truly staked their claim as one of, if not, the Nation's leading HS soccer programs as it cruised to it's second straight Texas Class 5A State Championship.  The Marauders defeated Klein 3-0 with goals from Josh Mensah, Eric Przybysz and Eric Frazier.

Marcus stormed out of the blocks and put Klein under all sorts of pressure.  The pressure paid off midway through the first half as Gino DePaoli clipped a ball into the box from the left that was flicked on by Chad Caldwell.  Mensah's first touch was sublime before he rifled the ball home with his right foot. 

Ten minutes later, DePaoli's sweet left foot found Przybysz in stride, who deftly placed the ball into the bottom corner of the net to make it 2-0 to the defending State Champions.

The second half saw Klein begin to create some offense, but the stonewall defending of the Marauders, that conceded only one goal in the entire playoff run, held firm.  Jared Jacob's was faultless behind Randy Wright, Christian Dahlskog, Luke Boyd and DePaoli.

Then with twelve minutes remaining, captain Eric Frazier received a perfect through ball from Przybysz, before collecting himself and burying the ball in the far corner past the helpless Klein goalkeeper to seal the deal.

Throughout the game, Marcus' Sam Garza was in inspired form as he controlled the game.  Inch perfect passes, a knack for being where the ball was and complete control on the ball allowed the Marauders to dictate the pace of the game.  Garza was named State Tournament MVP for his classy contributions.

The Marauders finished their incredible season with a 26-3-3 record and back-to-back Texas Class 5A State Champions.
