MEN'S INDOOR SOCCER OPEN SEASON

The Georgian Grizzlies men's indoor soccer teams opened their 2018 OCAA season on Friday when they took part in the Conestoga Invitational Tournament in Kitchener, ON.

The Grizzlies have a fresh look with just five returning players from last year's group.

Georgian played a solid first game winning a thriller 3-2 over the Canadore Panthers on penalty kicks. They then pushed hard but came up on the short end of a 2-0 score to the Conestoga Condors to finish in second place in their pool.

In the third place game the Grizzlies ran out of gas as they fell 4-1 to the Laurier-Brantford Golden Hawks to end the tournament in fourth place.

Georgian will next play at the George Brown Invitational on Thursday, Feb. 1 in Toronto, ON.

The Grizzlies will host their own home tournament on Friday, Feb. 16 at the Bradford Sports Dome in Bradford, ON. That will be Georgian's final tune-up before they compete in the OCAA regionals hosted by Seneca College on Mar. 7.
