Marshfield Blue Jay Soccer

The Marshfield Blue Jays held the Willard Tigers to a one point lead at the Jays home field on Thursday night. It was an exciting game with the Tigers winning by just one goal. The final score was 1-2. The Jays only goal was made by #20, Ethan Jernigan, off the assist of a throw in by # 18 Willis Zirschky. Adam Callaway # 10, Duell Wilson, # 9, and #12 Chance Lafferty made some pretty awesome defensive moves to thwart the Tiger offense. James Reese, #10, Jesse Day, #17 and #23 freshman Robert Martin had some pretty good runs at the goal, but to no avail.The team continues to play hard with a drive to win. After a battle with the JV Jays the Tigers managed a 2-0 victory. The Blue Jays next home game will be , Tuesday , September 5, against Ozark.

The Aurora Houn ‘Dawgs came to town Monday evening to open the season at Marshfield HS. The Varsity won the game 3-2 on a goal by Ethan Jernigan during the 10min sudden death overtime. Ethan was assisted by Willis Zirschky on the corner kick.

Goals were also scored by Joe Callihan, on an assist Willis Zirschky, and by James Reece. It was a very exciting game with Aurora scoring the only goal in the 1st half. The Jays came back strong in the second half to score 2. Then in the 2nd minute of stoppage time of the 2nd half the Aurora team tied it. Which of course led to the OT.

In the words of one parent at the game,

We had the biggest crowd I have ever seen at a MHS soccer game it was FANTASTIC!!! I look forward to a great soccer season.
