WARREN AIR FORCE BASE, Wyo. -- For the first time in more than 10 years, Warren's soccer team returned victorious from their weekend tournament held at the Air Force Academy, Colo. The team, composed of active-duty, civilian and dependent players, traveled to the Air Force Academy Oct. 13 to compete in the Rocky Mountain Championship soccer tournament, a tournament held for the all northern region military installations. The tournament was held in double-elimination fashion and saw Warren's team outscore their opponents eight to two. "We pulled out a come-from-behind victory in our second game against the undefeated, and defending championship, [Air Force] Academy team," said Maj. Paul Hendrickson, 319th Missile Squadron assistant operations officer and team captain. "AJ Adams, a dependant player, scored late in the game. Our goal keeper, Airman 1st Class Anthony Funk, 90th Security Forces Squadron, made a dramatic stop during the shoot-out of that game." The championship game saw leading scorer 1st Lt. Adam Pfannenstein, 90th Medical Operations Squadron, score with a header in the second half. The header was off a corner kick from Airman 1st Class Kevin Galo, 790th Missile Security Forces Squadron. "Pfannenstein and I proudly accepted the traveling plaque from the Academy's sports director," Hendrickson said. "This marked the first time Warren has claimed a victory in the Rocky Mountain Championships." Warren's leading scorers were Pfannenstein with three, Hendrickson and Adams each with two and Galo with one. The rest of the team consisted of Staff Sgt. Christopher Bidwell, 90th Security Support Squadron; Christian Padilla, a dependant; Staff Sgt. Daniel Weisz, 90th Maintenance Operations Squadron; Senior Airman David Jung, 90th Missile Maintenance Squadron; Airman 1st Class Anthony Funk, 90th SFS; Tech. Sgt. Joshua Hinsey, 90th SFS; Master Sgt. Gary Snyder, 90th Missile Security Forces Squadron; and Senior Airman Tyler Henry, 90th MMXS. According to Hendrickson, after the plaque is engraved, the team plans on presenting it to Col. Christopher Coffelt, 90th Missile Wing commander.
