Colorado Rush Players Down CU Women
(11.16.08)
The University of Colorado Women headed off to Minnesota this weekend to begin their run in the NCAA National Tournament. Their first round opponent was underdog South Dakota State (in their first ever NCAA Division I national tournament). Two Rush players have helped lead the SDSU Jack Rabbits to new heights and one of them, Kellyn Farrell, ended the CU season with a 13th minute goal in a 1-0 game. We are sorry for the CU Women but happy for Kellyn and twin sister Kerstyn for their roles in this upset. Good luck to South Dakota State in round two!
Rush Players Earn National Team Call-Ups
(11.11.08)
(Conor Casey) (Colin Clark)
Congratulations are in order for Rush Players, Conor Casey and Colin Clark. These two players, currently playing in the MLS for the Colorado Rapids, have been called up to represent our country in a World Cup Qualifier next week at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park. The important call up seems to be a reward for the huge role the two have played for the Rapids and their recent individual form. For Casey the call up is a result of incredible work and a long road back after previous call ups prior to serious injury. For Clark, this is the next stage of his life long dream; his first opportunity to represent our country at the very highest level.
For Zack Foxhoven and Paolo DelPiccolo, the vision of Casey and Clark being brought in to the full national team serves as inspiration as these two have been called in to the U18 National Team camp to be held in California after Christmas. These two, members of the 90 Academy team for Rush, will compete against the best players in our country in the hopes of being called in for the next international trip to Australia in January of 2009.
Congratulations to all four Rush Players and good luck to them all.

Girls U16 Nike Capture First Ever State Championship
Was it worth the wait? If you would have seen the celebration this past Sunday, you would likely agree that the answer is yes. Andrew Kummer’s Nike Girls came out of the chutes with tremendous energy and determination and immediately put Pride on the defensive. Forty minutes later it was 2-0 with many big plays defining the match. The second forty did not define the match, but the team. Sheer hard work and heart led the way. This group has travelled so far and has grown so much. Now, they are the best in Colorado! Congratulations to our 16’s.
Girls U15 Nike Team Wins Third Straight State Championship
Winning a single State Championship is not an easy task. It is a wonderful accomplishment. Winning three times in a row is a bit special. Yes, there is a “smidgen” of luck to sports, but mostly, it is hard work that pays off. Lincks, down the left flank. She beats one, then two defenders. Gets a cross off…Horan is there……Goal! Goal! Goal!......Ole!!! 1-0. Congratulations to this group of champions Coached by Tim Schulz.Oscar Montes – One of the Best Players in the Country
