Nether United Palominos win Columbia Fall Classic in dramatic fashion


The Nether United U14G Palominos based in Delaware County traveled to Columbia MD the weekend of Nov 19th/20th to compete in the Columbia Fall Classic tournament. After stringing together 3 convincing wins versus Montgomery Soccer Club, DC Stoddard United and FC Frederick to qualify for the championship game; the Palominos faced the Baltimore Bays and led the game in the closing minutes.

But the Baltimore Bays tied the game at 2-2 in the closing seconds of the championship game and the game went to penalty kicks (PKs) where the Palominos won in dramatic fashion with three successful PKs and two outstanding saves by the Palomino’s keeper which bested the Baltimore’s efforts.


Congratulations Palominos on a hard fought championship in Maryland!
