COACH’S COMMENT
“… It was a tight one. JC got the better of the first half and we were lucky to get to half with it tied. We challenged the boys to win the ball out of the air in the second half and they responded. I feel like we out possessed and out worked JC in the second half. Trenton Adkins came up with a huge Penalty Kick save to keep the lead. Our defense played a great game for us and denied Johnson Central time and time again. It was a great match up.”
