MUS 7 and MUS 8 will both be hosting matches in the first round of the Shelby League Soccer Tournament.
The starting time for the match on April 24th between the MUS 9th grade squad and the St. Benedict JV squad at St. Benedict scheduled for 7:00 PM has been pushed back 30 minutes. The match now starts at 7:30 PM. The boys were notified of this change at practice yesterday.
If you were one of the 24 boys who exchanged gifts with the Lindisfarne team after the JV match this past Saturday, you received a Lindisfarne school tie. Please wear the tie on Friday, April 25th with a white shirt, your blue blazer, and gray or khaki pants. The coaching staff would like to have a picture made with all of you in your ties to send to the Lindisfarne guys. We'll take the picture on the Chapel steps immediately after Friday Chapel. Thanks for your help!
The Eighth-grade squad plays at ECS on Monday afternoon. Their coach has sent information regarding the location of the match.
"Games are being played on the Football Field. If you are coming from G'town Pky, west on Macon-take the third street. Entrance to the field is between the 'Legacy' Center (Newer Gym) and the larger bleachers."
Please be aware of the following changes / details:
1) The Varsity match with Ridgeway scheduled for Saturday, April 19th has been canceled. There is no Varsity match on Saturday.

None of the high-school soccer squads (9th, JV, or Varsity) will practice on Friday afternoon, April 11th. Monday, April 14, practice resumes at the regular time for the Varsity and JV squads; the freshmen play Briarcrest's JV squad at 6:00 PM at MUS on Monday.
The 7th grade match against Lausanne scheduled for Friday, April 11th has been postponed due to poor field conditions at Lausanne. The match is now scheduled to be played on Thursday, April 17th at 4:15 PM at MUS. The Lower School soccer schedule will be updated soon to reflect this change.
Please note the following changes / updates in the Lower School schedule:
1) The match between MUS 8 and GSL scheduled for Friday, April 11th has been canceled due to the fact that MUS will not have enough players to field a team; quite a few players went to the State Latin Convention.
2) MUS 8 has a practice Monday afternoon, April 14th at 4:00 PM on the football practice field.
3) The games scheduled for Wednesday, April 16th have been "flipped" time wise. St. Georges' Gold will play MUS 8 at MUS at 4:30 PM; St. George's Red will play MUS 7 at MUS at 6:00 PM.
Work is still in progress to find dates for the MUS 7 vs Germantown match and the MUS 8 vs GSL match. When the matches are re-scheduled, the players will be notified, and the Lower School schedule will be updated on the blog.
The 7th grade match against Germantown scheduled for Wednesday, April 9th has been canceled. The Germantown team was double-booked for Wednesday, and no team can play two matches back-to-back. Our match will eventually be re-scheduled, but at the moment, no date or time has been set.
