YUMA, Arizona, October 26, 2011 - Grenada’s Shanon Phillip will
lead the Arizona Western College in a semi-final game against Pima Community
College on Wednesday in the NJCAA Men’s Football Division 1.
Phillip, who is the captain of
the AWC’s Matadors, is hoping that his team could make it all the way to the
final and retain its title.
Phillip, a defender, played for
St Mark’s Secondary School and Hurricane FC in the domestic competitions and was
also a member of Grenada’s 2011 Gold Cup team.
It’s the sixth time in the last
seven seasons that the Matadors have qualified for the postseason, and it’s the
second straight year that the Matadors have won the right to host the second
round of the postseason by virtue of clinching one of the top two spots in the
conference.
It will also be a rematch of last
year’s Region 1 Final, which the Matadors won in Yuma, 2-0, to win their
first-ever Region 1 Championship.
