Rush Winning Weekend!

The Michigan Rush (in white) remain undefeated this season in the MUSL!

     The Michigan Rush hosted SC Mladost BIH at Northville Community Park on Friday night, for a Michigan United Soccer League (MUSL) Open 1st Division league game.  Goal scoring was on display from the get go, and the Michigan Rush showed why they are considered by many, to be the premier club of the MUSL.  The Rush were able to move the ball down the field with accurate passing, while controlling the tempo en route to a 5-3 victory.  SC Mladost scored 3 late goals, after it was apparent that the Rush had eased off of the gas pedal.  The Rush are a talented soccer club, and show good sportsmanship by not running up the score.
     SC Mladost BIH is owned and operated by Nisvet Sabic, and are currently in 4th place in the Open 1st Division with 6 points and a divisional record of 2-1.  It is important to note that SC Madlost has played less games so far then the rest of the division.  SC Mladost is lead in scoring this season by Semsudin Dizdarevic with 3 goals.  SC Mladost has advanced to the quarterfinals of the Open Division Founders Cup Tournament where they will face the FSC Lightning for the right to advance. 
     The Michigan Rush are owned and operated by Jan Rigterink, and are currently in 1st place in the Open 1st Division with 12 points and a divisional record of 4-0.  Craig Hearn, and Travis Roy are amongst several Rush players that have scored this season.  The Michigan Rush have also advanced to the quarterfinals of the Open Division Founders Cup Tournament, and await a matchup against International United.
     Northville Community Park is located off of 5 mile, west of Beck road in Northville.  It is on the north side of 5 mile right next to the old female prison.  Northville Community Park offers walking trails, baseball, and softball diamonds, along with several soccer fields surrounded by large trees, which gives the park a quiet, peaceful atmosphere.
     The Michigan Rush are a collective group of soccer coaches that stay involved in the game by not only playing, but by coaching kids of all age, and skill level.  Several Rush alumni currently play professional soccer all around the globe.  Some of the more famous Rush alumni include Connor Casey (U.S. national Team), Mike Chabala (Houston Dynamo), Todd Dunivant, and Colin Clark (Los Angeles Galaxy).  The Rush also put on clinics, and camps amongst other events.  For more information about the Michigan Rush click on the link below.
