River Gee’s shining star, Humphrey Grugbaye, emerged victorious as the “Best Goalkeeper” at this year’s highly anticipated County Meet.
Putting on a stellar performance throughout the tournament, Grugbaye showcased his exceptional skills under the goalposts.
In the 2023/2024 County Meet, Grugbaye participated in six intense games. He managed to secure three clean sheets while conceding only four goals, exhibiting his remarkable talent and dedication to his craft.
His outstanding saves and strategic gameplay were key factors in River Gee’s success in various matches.
Notably, Grugbaye has etched his name in County Meet history by achieving trophy wins with three different Counties.
From his triumphant victory with Bomi in 2018/2019 to his subsequent win with Grand Kru in 2019/2020, and now adding River Gee 2023/2024 to his list of accomplishments, Grugbaye’s legacy as a top-tier goalkeeper continues to shine.
An interesting highlight of Grugbaye’s distinctive approach is his use of a Holy Bible placed at the back of his net.
While some may view this as a superstition, his opponents, particularly Lofa, perceived it as mystical or “juju.” This unique practice adds to Grugbaye’s mystique and sets him apart on the field.
Congratulations to Humphrey Grugbaye on his well-deserved recognition and success as the “Best Goalkeeper” at the 2023/2024 County Meet! His dedication, skill, and innovative techniques have truly solidified his position as a standout player in the sporting world.
