Early Season Workouts Begin for FC MB United

If last year's championship banner finds a mate at the end of this year the achievement may be the result of January practice. With the north wind howling and a bad moon rising, FC MB United began the long, grueling march toward a second consecutive Fresno Pacific University soccer intramural championship. The lads seek to continue the dominate pattern established last year during their undefeated campaign.
This year, however, the MBBS ballers know that hard work, grit and determination factor into the final equation.
"We know that we enter the season with a big 'ol bulls eye on our backs," admitted striker Ben T. Schmidt. "Last year we were able to sneak in under the wire and catch a few teams off guard, but this year they all know we're the team to beat."

While knowing is generally accepted as being half the battle, in this case the MBBS'ers feel pretty confident of the repeat.
"We've got skills," said Matt Insley. "And, we've added a crucial piece to the puzzle by signing goalkeeper Ryan Klassen from Kansas.
Indeed, Klassen brings a veritable wall to place in front of the net by imposing his will upon the competition.
As the winds of January howl and the lads suit up for practices in harsh California weather, the common goal of a second title warms the blood of FC MB United.
"I'm expecting another banner year," concluded Menno Simons. "Go get 'em."
