“We had to stay composed and calm to retain possession,” commented Smithtown coach Chris Herrschaft. “Primo FC has too many weapons to contain so we had to keep the ball.”
Chris Galindo had two goals and Ryan Grande added one to give Smithtown the title. Goalkeeper Jake Meaney had the shutout in goal.
Primo FC received the Howard Rubenstein Sportsmanship Award as determined by the game officials. Now living in Kentucky, Mr. Rubenstein was seemingly involved in every facet of New York soccer for decades and is a member of the Halls of Fame of Eastern New York, the US Amateur Soccer Association and the LIJSL.
