Georgia Impact organization head Will Tomasello admitted he watched today’s PGF 18U Premier National Championship from his car. Finishing runner-up nine times in national title games will do that to you.
Head Coach Patrick Lewis remembers well the PGF 14U national title game three years ago when his team lost 7-4 to the OC Batbusters, which was coached by Mark Campbell– an assistant coach on Mike Stith’s squad the Impact faced today at Deanna Stadium in Bill Barber Park located in Irvine, California.
And Lewis admitted he was 0-2 this year facing Stith’s OC Batbuster team.
“We just knew to get the championship we’d have to go through them at some point,” he said before the game started.
