The real secret to Borussia Kronz’ success won’t appear on any game sheet.

And while this week’s 11-5 win over the Highlanders was another example of the squad’s punishing offence in action, with Kevin Luarca leading the charge, the team has come to depend instead on defensive steadiness.

“Alessio Fabbri has been the heart and soul of Borussia’s rise to the top,” declares Michael Napoletano, stealing a quote from teammate and top scorer Alexis Solis. “Even though his name hasn’t appeared on the score sheet, his dedication and leadership from the back has been exemplary.”

Borussia Kronz now have the BSC Young Boys in their sights as they look to break into first place in the B4 Division, with four games left in the regular season.

POTG: “Alessio Fabbri has been the team’s MVP, but Alexis Solis and our goalie Alex Fuentes also deserve a lot of credit for the team’s success.”
