Holy City 2019

East Cobb runner-up at Charleston Holy City 2019

The Hogs traveled down to Charleston this past weekend for the 2019 Holy City Classic. While this one isn’t quite as far as Lake Tahoe, it wasn’t close, and remember that hedgehogs have short legs.

East Cobb placed second🥈🥈🥈 in the tourney to a team from a city known for a mouse and boy bands. They have swans 🦢.

Huge props to the Holy City Sinners Masters Lacrosse Club and Chris Leeper for putting on an excellent event, for keeping the weather super good and the extra charred “Clarke” hot dogs.

Opponents included Crown Town Kingsmen (p/k/a QC Misfits), Columbia Natives, the team that shall remain nameless and Jacksonville Juice. The 🦔s were 4 - 2 overall.

Our tourney MVPs and gnome winners include:

Tourney MVP: Jon Santa Maria - Goalkeeper (Hog Debut!) 🧱

Offense MVP: Scott Jackson - Attack (Red Hat) 👨‍⚕️

Defense MVP: Braden Gordon - Defensive Midfield (The Moose 🦌)

Transition MVP: Drew Wassenaar - Midfield (🎳🎳🎳)

We highly recommend this tournament, Charleston is an extra fine city, the food is great and it’s next to an ocean 🌊, which is always useful.

More to come from the Hogs in the coming weeks -including tons of new 🦔 swag. Thank you for your support of our washed up club - we appreciate it!
