After a productive season and finishing record of 16-7-1, before heading to Districts on Oct. 30, the Varsity boys Soccer team is excited to move on to State and take on their competition.
“I’m looking forward to playing in tougher competition,” senior Jordan Flack said. “There’s less teams playing [in sectionals than districts] so it’s exciting to know you’re one of the better teams.”
The team took first in conference with a win against FHC on Oct. 19. With this win the team was guaranteed a spot in the second round of districts, playing their first district game on Nov. 2. The boys won the game against Fort Zumwalt South with a score of 1-0.
“[Winning the game] was amazing,” Head coach Larry Scheller said. “Basically when you’re in the post season, the objective is to move on to the next round and that’s what we did. We missed a few shots early in the game but we made up for them and finished the game on top and we’ll move on.”
Aside from the championship games, some of the team thinks the season wasn’t as good as it could have been. Senior Brendan Harney believes the amount of losses should have been less.
“I feel like the season has gone well,” Harney said. “We played good against the good teams and bad against the bad teams. We could have done a lot better.”
