Braveheart Soccer......Historical Records

Stepping off the bus after the long ride west the Raiders knew they were in for a very tough game. Ranked number one in the WEst, Springfield Cathedral was waiting to show their dominance. Dominate they did for about 10 minutes. Scoring two quick goals the Purple menace had a distinct advantage over CCHS. The boys settled down and gave Cathedral all they could handle in the first half, missing out on some good opportunities to score, missing an open net and a bouncer off the bar. The second half was a good one as Cathedral scored on a nice play while Central's Mike Casale connected to make it 3-1. From that point on the raiders dominated play..hitting the bar several times and just not getting any luck. This however may have been just what the team needed to see its capabilities ans they got some good performances off the bench by the subs. The raiders now stand at 3-2-1 overall and play Haverhill Sunday, September 30 7 PM at haverhill Stadium.
