TennZip Posted November 12, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2017 Congratulations to Simon Spelling and his Medina student athletes on a great year https://www.ohio.com/akron/sports/high-school/other/boys-soccer-beavercreek-1-medina-0-2ot-bees-come-up-just-short-in-division-i-state-title-match?utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Pulse+Morning+Newsletter&utm_source=second-street 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fknbuflobo Posted November 12, 2017 Report Share Posted November 12, 2017 In the mid 1980s, Simon Spelling was assistant coach/graduate assistant, not sure exactly which, under HC Steve Parker. Point is that he was a very fiery and very effective coach. Those were Akron's best teams, outside the Porter years. And as a player in the early 1980s, Simon Spelling is still the standard to which Zips' central defenders are judged. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And in the 2009 and 2010 season and I believe 2011 as well, when 1350 AM would broadcast the matches, Simon would do color with Frenchy as the commentator. It was wonderful to listen to him describe plays, flow, pace, and past experiences as a player and a coach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is a politcal statement waiting to happen. This is a once in a lifetime PR opportunity. Want to keep the Crew? Post that picture on a billboard along one of the highways. You should at least post that on BigSoccer.com. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zip_ME87 Posted February 11, 2018 Report Share Posted February 11, 2018 About 4 months late, but still worth posting. I missed that Chad and his team won a championship last Fall in Sweden. https://www.ninetyplussoccer.com/news/2017/10/18/ninety-plus-pro-chad-barson-wins-title Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
