Blue Jays Battle Bolivar

Wednesday, August 29th, 2007

The Jays travelled to Bolivar, Tuesday to take on the Bolivar Liberators. The first half was a very intense battle with both teams remaining scoreless at half. The Jays had several shots at goal with no luck.
The second half started just as action packed, with both teams playing well. But, alas, a foul against the Jays turned the tide. Bolivar took advantage of a penalty kick and put one in, making the score 0-1. The Jays continued to play tough , but were just unable to take advantage of the many shots at goal they had. The Senior strong, Liberators were able to capitalize on 3 more shots to make the final score 0-4.
The Jays continue to evolve into a team to be contended with. One of the Senior Liberators commented about the Jays …” their alot better…” . The Jays will continue to get better with every game.
The JV Jays did better in their match. Freshman, Josh Morgan put one in, at the 23rd minute of play. Then later, in the last 30 seconds of the half, Wes O’Neal planted another ball, to make the score at half, 2-0.
Bolivar came out swinging and scored 3 minutes into the second half and then again, 5 minutes later. Making it a tied game. Four minutes later they scored again, putting them on top 2-3. Fortunately, for the Jays, Kyle Cary, put one in the box during the 46th minute. Making it a 3-3 game. Then with 6:51 left on the clock, Bolivar booted in another one. With 4 minutes left to play, Ethan Replogle scored off the assist of D.J.Hensley, to make the final 4-4. A very hard played game. Good Job to all the Jays. Keep up the intensity.
The next game is Sept., 4th at Ozark. Game time 4:30. GO JAYS!!!
