DEA Bedford Over 30

The Bedford Pacers finished the fall season on a loosing note to the feet of Hollis Overlook in Hollis yesterday, 4-1. The Pacers were missing key players again, which placed a heavy burden on the players that came out to play on this beautiful Sunday morning. Carlos Del Carpio got the nod in the net for Bedford. Chris Cloutier would start at sweeper and move to an "offensive" stopper position as the Pacer fell behind earlier in the game. The surface of the field was very rough so it made passing the ball a challenge. Scoring goals for Hollis was not a challenge, as they would go up 3-0 by half time. The second half would continue like the first ended. Hollis would remain in control for the first ten minutes, and raising the score by one. Bedford would finally pick up the pace, stringing three consecutive passes together a few times. Rob Easton, who got his share of running in playing center mid, would find John Guild open in front of the net. John would take the 20 yard pass and turn it beating the Hollis substitute keeper. Bedford would look sharper for the remaining 30 minutes but could not score. The game would end 4-1. Bedford finished its first season in Division 2 in 4th place.
