Playing with no reserves, the 7th/8th graders played a really solid 1st quarter, but let up and found themselves trailing 4-0 at halftime. It didn't get any better in the second half, as they seemed to be out of gas and eventually lost by a final of 7-0.
The previous meeting between the two teams was 9-1, so at least goal differential wise, they were better a goal than last time. However, everybody from the forwards to the goalie had a very disappointing game.
Almost every person lost the one-on-one battles, there were sloppy kicks poor positioning. Even on a corner kick, a ball caromed off of one of our own defenders into the net. That summed up how poor the team looked today.
They did however dominate the play and flow of the 1st quarter, but for whatever reason they did not continue that the rest of the game.
With half the season remaining, the boys will need to regroup and step it up a notch if they want to be competitive.
The team was missing Brandon, Timothy, Gavin C. and Gary.
