The North Star Wolves boys soccer team have wrapped up their six-game regular season undefeated.

The Wolves tied for the top spot in the WECSSAA City Group and will now play in the “AA” division for the playoffs. Their final regular season game was last Wednesday afternoon against the Catholic Central Comets, a match that ended in a 1-1 tie. It was played at Holy Names in Windsor.

Max Ricciuti scored North Star’s lone goal of the match with Catholic Central getting their goal late in the contest.

The tie improved the Wolves’ record to 3-0-3, good for 12 points and a tie with Lajeunesse atop the standings.

“Only two schools of the 15 AA schools finished the season without a loss. That is a true testament to this team’s ability to play hard every game and compete with every team we match up against,” said North Star coach Gavin Blunt. “We have established ourselves as a tough, physical team that plays tight defense and are fast up top. Hopefully we can continue to play in this form and grind our way to the WECESSA finals. We finished first in our group so we received a first round bye and we play our first playoff game May 16 at the Libro (Centre).”

As for the game versus the Comets, Blunt stated “the boys played hard and fought through some bad weather. We ended the season without a loss so that’s an accomplishment the boys can be proud of, but starting next week none of that matters.”

Blunt praised the team for how they played throughout the 2023 WECSSAA boys soccer season.

“The boys played all year with high intensity and solid fundamentals. Team chemistry grew throughout the season and hopefully we can continue to grow it throughout the playoffs on our journey to the WECESSA finals,” Blunt stated.
