MS BOYS SOCCER

 

Thales of Rolesville (8/21) – The Warriors opened the season against Thales Academy of Rolesville.  The Warriors were excited to get the season started.  Although the Warriors are young and inexperienced, there were several great passes and some really good soccer from a group of players that have only spent a short time together but were able to learn a lot about each other during the game. “I am looking forward to watching these young men develop over the season.” – Coach Walston

 

Cary Christian (8/22) – The Warriors took on a more experienced team in Cary Christian.  The Warriors were looking to build upon some good points they had displayed in their opening contest and things they had worked on at practice.  The experience of the Knights proved to be too much on this day.  “We have 13 new players this season, 8 of which are 6^th graders.  We just haven’t had enough time to gel as a team or get to know one another.” – Coach Walston

 

Magellan Charter School (8/29) – The Warriors faced Magellan Charter School on Tuesday, August 29^th.  The Warriors were still looking for their first win of the season.  The Warriors had lots of energy and were eager to compete.  After going down early the Warriors confidence begin to waiver a bit.  “I spoke to the guys about focusing on the progress we make as a team and not on the wins or losses.” – Coach Walston The Warriors continued to fight and had a few chances at the goal but were not able to convert.
