TORONTO - Defensive duo Rocco and Luch Picheca have re-signed with Pistolas FC for the 2009 season and bring back the firm wall on defence.
Rocco, now entering his third year with the club, has been the general on defence sweeping the line with his powerful voice and play. He has been the "Rock" of the defence for sure, and his return is a definite relief and a boost of confidence for the entire 2009 team.
Brother Luch joined in 2008, and did not disappoint. He had a strong year and was very defensive minded and reliable.
Above all, the brothers were committed, die-hard Pistolas who rarely missed any games and gave 100% every match.
The defence is starting to slowly shape up. Out of the 5 players already confirmed for 2009, 3 of them are defencemen. The team will need to shift its focus on the midfield and upfront in the coming weeks.
