Ronkonkoma Riptides Go Undefeated & become LIJSL Fall 2007 Division 7E Champs!
November 18, 2007 The Ronkonkoma Riptides have just completed their inaugural travel soccer season and shocked the league going undefeated with a 9-0-1 record. The team scored 34 goals while giving up only 3 goals all season long. Eight of those games were shoutouts. The team's record was the result of practicing hard over the summer and placing 1st and 2nd in two summer tournaments. The Riptides moto was "Never Give Up", although they were never behind in a game the team showed their toughness during 0-0 games and always playing hard and putting games out of reach. Congrats to the players, families, and coaches...a great accomplishment!
