With a strong appearance and contribution by everyone on the roster, Catholic defeated St. Pius X 3-1 for 3rd Place in the MSHSAA Boys Soccer State Championship tournament. (See award ceremony)
David Bailey put Catholic on the board first off a pass from Justin Bowenschulte 17 minutes into the game. St. Puis X responded quickly when Parrish drove the ball on the left side of the field and hit the right side of the goal at 18 minutes.
Catholic possessed the ball much of the time and were able to get the go-ahead goal at 35 minutes when Cullen Barr found the back of the net. This goal gave Catholic the half-time advantage with a 2-1 score.
The entire game was very physical with numerous yellow cards being issued to both teams, with one St. Pius X player receiving a soft red card as a result of receiving two yellow cards.
Catholic was able to get an insurance goal when Cullen Barr got his second goal of the game with an assist from Justin Bowenschulte at 75 minutes.
Great game for the entire Catholic Varsity team, specifically the two seniors that played in the game – Cullen Barr and Matt Simpson.
