Saturday found the JV Eagles at home to Jenison for a mid morning game to conclude a packed schedule for the week.

The Eagles started brightly and found some pockets of space, but were unable to get the ball too close to the opponents net. Play between the teams was tightly contested and Jenison ultimately broke through first with a goal about 12 minutes into the game. The Eagles responded well and were able to get some chances on Jenison's goal, even hitting the crossbar. Grand Rapids Christian was able to tie it up in the 16' minute with Boris Lalic making a run and shooting. His ball deflected, but he was able to follow up his own shot to put it home for a 1-1 halftime score.

The second half proved mostly dominant for the Eagles and they took the lead in the 39th minute. Some slick play down the right hand side that included a give and go between Luis Gomez and Miles Bourland sent the ball to the middle of the opponents box, where Boris was waiting to finish it off for a 2-1 lead. The boys worked hard to keep the ball and maintain their lead, but Jenison found a pocket of space with 5 minutes left in the game and curled it into the side netting to tie the game 2-2. Despite some prime opportunities after that, the Eagles would have to settle for a draw.

This week finds the Grand Rapids Christian boys at home on Tuesday and Thursday at 6:15 for matchups against Greenville and Forest Hills Northern
