The Cassville Wildcats rolled into Blue Jay terriotory, Monday night, and a wild fight ensued. Both teams were fairly evenly matched and the play went head to head for the entire match. Halftime came with the score remaining 0-0.
The second half started with the same ferocity showing on both teams. It was a hard fought fight, right down to the wire. The second half ended, 0-0.
The first OT ended the same with 0-0. The second OT ended when the Wildcats put one in the box on a throw in. Final 0-1. Once again the Blue Jays are showing that they are a team to be reckoned with. They played hard and with tenacity. They just need to get more accurate with their shots. Here are the stats I got from Angela after the game. Shots at Goal: James Reese 7, Jesse Day 3, Austin Fairbairn 1, Ethan Jernigan 5, Wes O’Neal 2 and Willis Zirschky had 4. GK Cory Dotson had 4 saves. Keep trying boys, and play tough.
The JV team also played with conviction tonight. They went to half time 0-0. They came out from half and continued to play tough. In the last 30 seconds of the game the Wildcats took a corner kick and scored the only goal of the match. Final 0-1.
The Jays next game is Thursday night at home against Lebanon. JV starting at 4:30. GO Jays!!!
