The Gator boys began the season on a succesful note, defeating Loyola 4-0.  The boys played a very nice game from start to finish.   Good team work, good ball movement.  Both offense and defense play very well.   At the 10 minute mark Sean McCullough made a short pass to Will Monsour. Will sent a nice cross to Brennan Randel who put a 12 yard one touch past the Flyer keeper to go 1-0.   The Gators had several more opportunites but had trouble finding the net.  The score at halftime is 1-0.   In the second half it took 26 minutes before Shreve scored their 2nd goal.   In the 66th minute, Sean sent a short thru ball to  Brennan at the 18, Brennan dribble to about 10 yards and had an easy shot on gaol.  Goal 3 game on a pass from Jordan Gray to Hayden Price, who slipped while in an offside position.  Because of that slip, he was not called offsides and Connor Randel, took the pass and sent it to the middle to Brennan right in front of the goal.    The 4th and final goal came from Connor after an assist from Brennan.   Connor took the pass from the 18, dribble to the 6 and scored easily.  Logan Calhoun, Kevin Rakel and Tyler Smith, controlled the defense allowing very few shots.  Those that were taken were stopped by Matt Green.

Overall good game and nice shutout.   Let's take the momentum to Baton Rouge and win the Dutchtown tournament.   Good Job Gators.

The boys Varsity had a very nice game from start to finish against the Neville Tigers.  Austin Wisby started the scoring on a very nice shot from outside the box on the right side.  The keeper was off his line and Austin put the ball just over his hands for a 1-0 lead.  This team is not afraid to take shots.  Last week we missed the goal, but last night we were on target.  The Neville keeper made some very nice saves, or this game would have been over early.  Brennan and Connor each had a goal in the second half to give the Gators a 3-0 win.  Kevin, Logan & Jeff played a solid defense and with Matt in the goal, they all perserved the shutout.  Everyone got some time on the field and it is apparent our depth will be our strength.

The JV boys played well considering they have had only one week of practice. I saw only the second half but they had a few opportunities to get a couple of scores.   They lost to Neville 2-0, with the first goal coming off a perfect corner kick.  The JV will be a competitive team and should have a good season.  Hopefully the weather will co-operate and they can get their games and tournaments in as scheduled. 

    Shreve and Ruston both tried to find their legs in this first game of the year.  Shreve scored early in the first half when Caydence Leber's shot was deflected to Hillary Prevot who solidly placed it in the goal.  A few minutes later, that play was reversed when Hillary's shot was deflected and Caydence put it in the net for the goal.  Ruston scored late in the second half with about 10 minutes remaining. 

    The Shreve girls all saw play time as the coach tried out her new group of players.  Congrats on your first win of the year! Kudos to Emily Watson for her great play in defense!

The season has come to end for the boys after a disapointing 2-1 loss to Woodlawn of Baton Rouge.   We didn't play our best game and you have to do that in the playoffs.  Woodlawn started the scoring in the 6th minute with a drive right up the middle.  Their second goal came at about 20 minutes on a close range rebound shot.   With the score 2-0 at the half, the Gators and a tough job in front of them.   At the 60 minute mark, Chris Rakel fought for the ball in front of the goal and knock one in.  That goal seem to spark the team and we played a lot better the last 20 minutes.  Woodlawn began to pack the defense and cleared the ball as long as they could, almost every time.  We had some opportunites in those last 20 minutes but just could not capitalize. 

The Gators had a good season overall, considering the youth on the team.  With only two Seniors on the team, the lack of experience was going to be tested and it was.  Thanks to Cody and Paxton for all of your efforts and hard work over the last several years.  You can be proud of the job you did for your team.  The Gator family wishes you the best of luck in the future.     

This game was very typical of the type of game you have come to expect when these two teams meet.  #1 it's usually for the District Championship and # 2 it's hard fought and down to the wire.   Tonight, was both.   Magnet will finish with one loss and the District Title, Shreve finishes 2nd.   The Gators weren't quite up to speed in the first half and Magnet took advantage in the 16th minute with a score off of a free kick and two touches. In the 25th minute Kevin made a great save to prevent a sure goal but unfortunately 1 minute later Magnet made a short thru ball and a 10 yard run to score their 2nd goal.  At the half it was 2-0.   The second half was played much better by the Gators, we controlled the ball better and gave ourselves several opportunites to score, but we just couldn't convert to any goals.   The defense really stepped up and made some great stops, Logan saved a shot of the goal line and toward the end of the game ran down a Magent attacker who was on a long breakaway, to take away a 1 v 1 opportunity against Matt.  Cody as usual, was a pain to the Magnet offense all night. Both teams played well and will represent Shreveport in the playoffs.   Our first playoff game should be Saturday Feb 2nd.   As soon as Coach Smith finds out, he'll let me know and I'll update this site.    Congratulations to the Gators for a great season.  Now on to the playoffs for hopefully several more games. 

The boys team came away with 2 ties on Saturday in the Lafayette Tournament.   They tied Carencro 1-1 and also tied Teurlings Catholic 1-1.

 Sunday the boys beat Morgan City 6-1 and then closed out the tournament by beating Comeaux 4-2.   Shreve took 2nd place with a 2-0-2 record.  Teurlings won the tournament by going 3-0-1.

Saturday morning found the Gators against University of Baton Rouge in a rematch from the Dutchtown Tournament.  At that time we thought we were the better team but we tied that game.  This time the boys hope to show they are the better team.   The game started well, in the 9th minute  Jordan Gray made a cross from the left, as the University keep reached for the ball, Chris Rakel kicked it right off his fingertips for the score.    Coming in the 12th minute, Chris, Jordan and Will Monsour worked the ball from midfield.  Will makes the final pass to Jordan who goes 1 v1 with the keeper for the easy goal.    Up 2-0, the Gators seemd to relax as University turned the tide and seem to control the game for the rest of the first half.  They score in the 23rd minute.    The second half was fairly even.  In the 48th minute, Christopher Lawrence makes a pass to Conner Randel to give Shreve a 3-1 lead and the game.

After a downpour wet the fields, it also seem to dampen the Gators enthusiasm. When going against the #1 team in the state you need to bring your "A" game.   Shreve didn't bring any game at all.   No highlights here.  Shreve loses to St. Thomas More 6-0.

Next game, Monday night against Loyola, 

The Gators had a tough pill to swallow aginst the rival Byrd Yellow Jackets tonight.  In a fairly even match the Jackets prevail 1-0.   The lone score came in the 27th minute after an apparent hand ball against Byrd but was not called by the referee,  everyone froze for just a couple of seconds and that allowed a Byrd player to flick the ball over Matt's head from about 15 yards out.

The main problem tonight was finishing our opportunities.   We have to get better at finishing what we started.   Even though it was an even game , the Gators could have scored several times.  Coulda, shoulda, woulda. 

Huge district game next Monday night against district leading Caddo Magnet.  If history means anything, this will be another exiting game between the Mustangs and the Gators. 

 Come out and support your Gators.

Only one word for tonight -  OUTSTANDING !!!    Shreve 1   Magnet  0

The Varsity Boys game through tonight with a huge win over the 5th ranked Caddo Magnet Mustangs.  Coach Matt Smith made a change in the starting line up by moving Kevin Rakel to center fullback and Paxton Mosour into the center mid field.  Both had an outstanding game.   Paxton's Senior leadership and experience was very noticeable and he seem to always be in the mix when we were attacking the Magnet goal.  At one point he had a tremendous one touch shot from 20 yards out. If the Magnet keeper had not been standing where he was, it would have been a goal.

The Gators played there second best 40 minutes,  of the season in the first half,  the defense was tremendous turning back the Magnet attack again and again.  Cody, Kevin and Logan had an outstanding game.   The entire team played an inspired half, but the best was yet to come.

The best 40 minutes started in the second half.  It started evenly,  toe to toe.  In the 48th minute Brennan, Randel made a great pass to Conner Randel who dribbled from 30 yards out, eluding 2 Magnet defenders and made an awesome left foot goal from 10 yards .   As Conner said after the game " they could've taken my legs out, I was going to score".   Ouite a statement from the Freshman.    

This goal sparked the team like we have not seen this season,  Magnet was down and the Gators kept them there.  Cody patrolled the defensive end like a man on a mission.  He was not going to be scored on.  The game turned very physical with many fouls and cards being given.   Magnet had two prime opportunities to score on free kicks from just outside the 18. After a scramble in front of the goal on the first one, Logan Calhoun cleared the ball off the goal line, the second one with one minute remaining was very similar as Logan again cleared the ball out to midfield.   The entire team took control the last 60 seconds and kept the ball away from our goal.

Not only the defense, but the midfield and forwards had a great game.   Sean, Chris, Sam, Jordan and Will moved the ball very well.  They were awesome.   Special mention goes to Tyler Smith getting his first start of the season and putting it on the line.  He had a great game on the left side.  What an inspiration Jeff Putnam was in the Goal.  Moving from the forward position to goalie due to the knee injury to Matt Green, Jeff was outstanding in the shutout.   Kudo's to the Shreve Students.  Thanks for your support.

Great Job to all of the Gators.   I believe they now realize how good they can be.  Here we come Lake Charles,    Go Gators !!!!!!
