Civics defeat Athlete's Foot in premiere league soccer

It hasn't been a good year for Athlete's Foot in the Permiere League this season.

Heading into Monday night's clash with the Under-17 boys Civics, Athlete's Foot held down a disappointing 1-13-1 record through 15 games.

Although the Civics use games played against Premiere League opponents as exhibition games, the games do count in the standings for their opponents.

It was more of the same through for Athlete's Foot on Monday night as the Civics defeated them 4-1 in Premiere League action at Tom Tipton field.

After playing to a scoreless first half the Civics opened the scoring with three second half goals by Dane Brason, Andy Simick, and Jeff Coccimiglio. Matt Diflumeri scored for Athlete's Foot to cut the lead to 3-1 but Steven Marques sealed the win late in the second half for the Civics.

The loss drops Athlete's Foot to 1-14-1 on the season with their next game set for Wednesday night at Tom Tipton field against the Bavarian Inn. Game time is 6:30.

The next night will see the Civics take on first-place Croatia, also a 6:30 p.m. start at Tom Tipton.
