2009 REGULAR SEASON &TOURNAMENT CHAMPIONS

Medgar Evers College Cougars
Medgar Evers College captures the 2009 regular season and tournament titles flipping the script on last year’s 2-1 loss to #1 Albany Pharmacy in the title game. Medgar Evers returned this year as the #1 seed while Albany Pharmacy entered as the #2 seed.

In a replay of last year, the Cougars took an early 1-0 lead only to have Albany Pharmacy equalize the game and have the two go back and forth in a tense battle throughout the second half. But this year it would be the Medgar Evers who would emerge victorious, scoring in the 86th minute to take the title.
