Colin Linggo comes to Tony’s Tavern to help sure up the attack after moving down to Houston from New York City.  He has experience that carried him to be an All-county HS selection back in New Jersey and to a spot on the Loyola college team.  Linggo brings a hard work mentality and looks to work hard to become an integral part of the offense and the attack unit.  Linggo’s dodging ability will look to give Tony’s a spark on the 2^nd attack unit to keep the opponents defense on their toes all game long.  Linggo joins a highly talented and successful attack unit that has helped lead the team to consecutive championships.  He will fit into a group that looks to find the open player, but that can also take it to the goal.  Linggo will help the attack stay fresh and win the battles on the offensive side of the field and help the team defend their title in 2008.
