Category: Jared Soccer

Jared was one of the few Newton freshman to make the Junior Varsity team and he’s been playing well with the stepped up level of competition. The team is doing well with roughly a .500 record after ~11 games. Apologies for delay in posting on the season. There are six photo galleries available in the photo galleries from various games from the season thus far.

Newton had a close 1-2 loss to league rival Weymouth today in Newton. I took the sequences of shots from the 2nd half and made a slide show:

Here is a slide show of him in the opening Jamboree:

Here is some youtube footage from the opening jamboree back in September.

Jared indoor soccer team Newton United won the 2nd session Playoffs on Tuesday evening defeating the leagues other 6 teams. Jared scored 3 goals in their 7-0 win in semi-final and then played fine defense in the 4-3 win over Westwood in the final.

Newton United, Jared’s indoor soccer team, went 8-1 for to win the regular season title. On Tuesday night they won 6-4 on against a tough Arlington team in their final regular season game (photos). They play in the play offs on Tuesday evening (they get a bye into a short game 20min semifinal and then play a 40min final if they advance).

yellow card coming…

Jared had 4 70-min soccer games last week. On Wednesday Day middle school faced the BC high seventh graders. Day was down early but finished strong to a 5-3 win. On Thursday Day faced Bigelow. After a scoreless first half, Jared drove from mid-field to put Day up 1-0. They went on to win 2-0. On Friday Jared concluded his middle school soccer career facing Oak Hill Middle School (photos). It was a close game but Oak Hill prevailed 2-1. On Saturday Jared’s Bay’s team faced Lexington (photos). Jared put Newton up 1-0 in the first half, but Lexington went on to a narrow 2-1 win.

Jared’s team had a double header today, playing a make-up in Framingham in the morning and then travelling to Winchester in the afternoon (photos of Jared, Photos of rest of team)

Framingham went out ahead 0-2 in the 1st half but Newton answered with 2 goals in 30 seconds from Jared and Daniel (photo sequence of 1st goal) to even the score.

Starting the day dry and not too cold:

Jared scored a 2nd goal (photo sequence) in 2nd half placing the ball over the goalie and under the cross bar (see photo below) and Newton powered home to a 5-2 win.

The temperature dropped to a near freezing 36F for the windy and rainy afternoon in Winchester. Newton held Winchester to 0-0 in first half, but let up two goals in 2nd half to lose 0-2. This was about as adverse playing conditions as I’ve ever seen, but the kids gutted it out. They played much closer to Winchester than in their previous 0-4 loss in earlier match up.

Rough soccer weekend by scoreboards, but great play. The Newton Bays team lost to Natick 0-4. Here are embedded videos (~16min each) of 1st and 2nd half.
