Catholic Drops Semi-final Game
Posted by soccermom under: Boys News .
Catholic faced the older and more experienced John Burroughs team in the semi-final game played today in Fenton at 1:00 pm. The sun was shinning, wind was blowing cold when the teams entered the field. Catholic was forced to play a lot of defense in the first half but was able to end the half with a 0-0 score.
Catholic was able to score first at 47 min, when David Bailey had the ball in the top of the box, passed the ball to Justin Bowenschulte who was able to place the ball in the right corner past the JB GK. Catholic came out energized and began controlling the game until about the 52 minute when there was a change in the momentum of the game. Consequently, JB’s Ettinger was able to score on a pass from Martin at 58 minutes. Unfortunately JB’s Martin was able to score on a corner kick at 69 minutes giving JB the go ahead and winning goal.
Although Catholic never retreated, and played until the final whistle they were unable to score another goal to tie the game. The final score was 2-1 placing Catholic in the 3rd place game tomorrow at 10:00 am.
