Last night, the boys made the trek to Fort Osage to take on the undefeated 11-0 Indians. The JV led off the night. The defensive combination of Eli Endicott and Kade Miller scored on a corner. Eli played the ball into the box and Kade finished to tie the game at 1-1 at halftime. Despite playing well in the second half, the boys lost 3-1. The varsity then took on a very confident and undefeated Fort Osage team. Fort O capitalized on a defensive mistake and scored in the first 3 minutes of the game. Down 1-0, the boys fought back and equalized when on a corner kick, the ball was bouncing around until Gustavo Mellow put a foot through it and found the back of the net to tie the game. The game was tied and right before halftime, Preston Sheller took a pass from Caden Harrold and hit a banger from 30 yards out the found space just above the goalies outstretched hands and into the net. We went to halftime with a 2-1 lead. Fort O came out from halftime on a mission and scored two goals in the first 8 minutes to take a 3-2 lead. We fought hard and kept the game 3-2 until around 15 minutes left, West Alden received a pass from Max McCoy and hit a shot right footed that found the bottom corner of the net to tie the game at 3-3. With 8 minutes left, it looked like we were headed to OT again, but Colton Barrett decided we didn't want to do that. He took an unselfish wide open pass from West, who had a contested shot, and finished in the back corner of the net from 15 yards out to put us up 4-3 with a little over 7 minutes left. We then packed it in and played defense for 5 minutes when West took a ball and drew a foul just outside of their box. Senior Preston Sheller stepped up to take the free kick. Kicking with his left foot, he curled the ball just inside the post and into the side netting to make the score 5-3 with about 2 1/2 minutes left. We defended well the last 2 1/2 minutes and won 5-3. Fort O is undefeated no longer. We have now won 3 of the last 4 games and are 4-2 over the last 6 games with the two losses being a PK loss and OT loss. The boys are starting to come together and we are playing really well. . We are honoring our 6 seniors on Wednesday at home against Ruskin. We play the next night at Staley.
