8th GRADE BOYS SOCCER
The 8th grade boy’s soccer team battled Scarborough to a 1-1 tie at GMS on Friday afternoon. The Rams fought back from an early 1-0 deficit to tie the game at one just before half time on a Dylan Turner goal. The Rams’ defensive backfield of Austin Bell, Tyler Eldridge, Colby Smith and Kevin Lombard held off a potent Scarborough attack at the beginning of the second half, allowing Jaime Biegel, Colin Harvey and the rest of the offense several chances to break the deadlock as time ticked away. Other notable performances in the tie were turned in by Thomas Bradshaw, Michael Kai, Jacob Claus, Corey Harmon, Eric Komulainen, Joe Lambert, Matt Melton, Damian Smith and Dylan Truong. Joe Smith provided sideline entertainment. The 8th grade boys finished the season with a 7-2-2- record. Great season, boys. Please return all uniforms to Mr. Mitchell’s room by Tuesday morning!
