Juiced up field for second annual Bryan Ostrower High School Soccer Showcase

Quote:
Bryan Ostrower would have been proud of the tournament that local soccer people and Northwestern High School have cooked up for this weekend, beginning Thursday at Manchester Meadows.

The second annual Bryan Ostrower High School Soccer Showcase features 16 high school teams from across the state, including 12 ranked in preseason polls. The tournament is named after Ostrower, a Northwestern alumni and soccer player and referee who passed away from brain cancer in 2011. He would have been thrilled to officiate games between some of the Palmetto State’s top programs.

“You can find out a lot about your team when you’re playing really good teams,” said Northwestern boys’ soccer coach Dominic Wren. “We’re delighted to have all the caliber of teams we’ve got.”
