Saints Travel to Topeka

Game 10 (7-2-1) 1 October at Washburn Rural (1-1 2 OT’s) We had a tall task tonight traveling to a very good Rural team with 4 key players (Farrar, Konnesky, Young, and Morrisette) in the infirmary.  And we came out a little tentatively, giving up a goal again in the opening minutes. But something special happened tonight as we responded with a vengeance. We were a different team for the next 90 minutes. I could not be prouder of the boys.  And we still had to defend a ton of long throws and way more corners than we like. But we attacked like crazy people creating many good scoring opportunities.

So, we have shown we were excited to get things started this week.  So, we finished off tryout week (Congratulations to Liam Ryan, Barrett Kitts, Jacob Muckerman and Zayveon Russell for being named Josh Lents Tryout Award Winners for their grade) Saturday with a shortened scrimmage featuring our varsity and extended varsity in a scrimmage which really pitted the defense against the offense. The defense prevailed 2-0 in a pretty well-played match from both sides. When I asked Bar
