Boys Varsity Soccer Wins in One Half Over Wyoming, 3-2

Game Date
Oct 1, 2019
Score
EAGLES : 3
WYOMING HIGH SCHOOL: 2

Tuesday evening proved to be eventful before players even took the field. After moving the game up (4:45 pm) due to EEE concerns, the Eagles wouldn't end up kicking off until 6 pm. Due to torrential rain, lightning, and an unplayable grass pitch, the Eagles moved back to Eagle Stadium (from Gainey) where they had only one hour to get a half of soccer in. 

The match wasn't pretty, but the Eagles did squeak out a win over Wyoming. Scoring for the Eagles was Boyden (Junior) assisted by a long ball from Eli Leegwater (Sophomore), Luc Hascall (Senior) off a bouncing ball in the box, and May (Senior) headed in the game-winner thanks to an assist from Drew DeBoer (Sophomore). 

The Eagles created seven golden opportunities but made the game closer than needed thanks to missed opportunities in the final third and a couple of mental lapses in the defensive third. The Eagles needed the victory to have any chance of clinching the OK Gold Conference top spot. Grand Rapids Christian still stands a half-game back from South Christian with two more conference games in the 2019 season.
