Match Report - Albany @ Ocean City Sunday, June 26, 2005 By Paul O'Donnell Ocean City maintained their unblemished record at home with a 3-1 win over the visiting Albany Admirals tonight. The Barons entered this match looking to avenge their only loss on the season to even the season series with the Admirals and remain in a tie at the top of the division (Cape Cod won last night over the Reading Rage 1-0). Ocean City set the tone early beginning with an urgency on the attack and it wasn't long before that up tempo paid dividends. Byron Carmichael drilled home the opener in the 10th minute off a fine feed from Adam Sternberger. The goal was Carmichael's 6th on the season in league play. |

US Open Cup Round 2 - Long Island Rough Riders @ Ocean City Barons Friday, June 24, 2005 By Paul O'Donnell The wake-up call Syracuse got from the stiff challenge from the young Barons in last year's Open Cup set them on a run that took them all the way to the Eastern Conference Final against eventual A League Champion (now USL Div 1) Montreal. There was another consequence of last year's Open Cup challenge that planted a seed in the minds of the Barons. Neil Holloway said it this way; “we're gonna bring an MLS side to Ocean City” and he recently told me after the win over Atlas “we're one step closer to making that come true.” Step two is next. |
