Our boys varsity soccer team had a heartbreaking loss tonight to Walton/Downsville, losing 3-2 in double overtime on a questionable call with 1:40 left in the game. Trailing 1-0 toward the end of the first half, Donovan Fermin tied it up 1-1 on an assist from Myles Uhalde. In the second half Downsville/Walton scored first to make it a 2-1 game. Our boys didn’t quit, with a little over a minute left in regulation Sean Wille scored to tie it up 2-2. On to overtime we go. In the first overtime period, our goalkeeper David Cammer made some great saves to keep them off the board. In the second overtime period it was more of the same, good chances by both teams but nothing would go in, until a penalty kick was awarded to Downsville/Walton in the 98th minute of the game. They converted the penalty kick and our boys take a 3-2 loss. A tough way to lose a hard fought game. We are back at it in Windham on Thursday.

Great effort from our varsity boys soccer team on Thursday night. Our boys lost a hard-fought battle to South Kortright 3-2. After taking a 1-0 lead on a goal by Donovan Fermin with an assist from Josh Haslam , South Kortright came back and tied it up 1-1 right before the half. Our boys scored first in the second half to make it 2-1 from a goal by Burton Strauch. South Kortright came back with 2 goals to take the lead 3-2.

The Varsity Girls played a great game last night at Hunter. Their passing and possession in the first half led to many offensive opportunities. Unfortunately, they were not able to equalize on the lone goal from Hunter, but fought hard until the end. The girls will play their first home game tonight against Davenport sporting their new jerseys. Come out and support them as they continue the hunt for their first win!
