Two for one soccer-Winkler Times

Friday August 26, 2005 Soccer fans get a two for one chance to catch the local sides Sunday afternoon with the MMSL’s Winkler Storm and WWSL’s South Central Hurricanes going back-to-back at the Parkland pitch in Winkler.The day gets started at 2 p.m.with the Storm, who went unbeaten through the first three months of the season but have dropped three of their last five, in critical match-up with United Weston in the battle for first place in the First Division. The first place Storm have seen their lead trimmed to just one point with the top four teams separated by only five points, and all the pursuing teams have at least two games in hand on Winkler. Weston is in fourth place, five points back. The Storm also host third place United Weston Aug. 26. There won’t be any standings implications in the 4 p.m. game between the women of the Hurricanes and Lightning. Unbeaten South Central has proven itself the class of the Fourth Division and the only drama remaining is if they will complete an unbeaten and untied regular season. In an earlier meeting in Winkler, the Canes blanked the Lightning 4-0.
