DENVER - There was a lot of action in this game but in the end, no goals. Max Kurtzman (Team Paule) and Spencer LaCivita (Team Quinn) both kept clean sheets on the day, with Kurtzman in partcular playing well in coming off his line and cutting down angles against an active Team Quinn attack.Image

Among the better chances for Team Quinn were a David Caban cross that rolled through the 6-yard box, runs down the wing from Arturo Cruz, Kovi Konowiecki and Henry Rios, and a surging run through the middle by Dominic Bonilla. Dylan Gaydosh had a late drive kept out by Kurtzman.

For Team Paule, Orlando Castaneda and Donny Toia seem to combine well up front, while Scott Thomsen just missed with a rocket drive off his left foot. Greg Davis showed some good poise and touch in central midfield, with Joseph Sofia covering well in the back line.
