Hate to be critical, but the Shrewsbury High School teams are the COLONIALS, not the Pioneers (that's St. John's, which, being an all male high school surely would NOT have a team playing in the GIRLS soccer tournament!) Had to go to three different websites to figure out where the girls' soccer game would be played. Sports reporting is tough, but could we at least try to get the team names right? This is the Daily SHREWSBURY, isn't it??
