Braveheart Soccer......Historical Records

In the early going of the game versus St. John's Prep it looked like the Raiders were still living in the past. This past Thursday to be exact. They thought they didn't have to play to win this one, but play they must. Central saw itself down 2-0 within the first 17 minutes of the first half. Then they started to play. Jon Kasper took a Joe mead pass and hammered it home at the 23 minute mark to make the score 2-1. At this point Alex Desorgo came on to play goal for the Central squad. He had several solid saves in the half to hold back St. Johns. The Raiders mounted several good scoring chances in the final 10 minutes of the first half. In the dying seconds of the half Jeff Gannon put a great shot on goal from 35 yards out and beat the Prep goalie in the lower left hand corner. In the seconf half Mike Casale flicked a nice ball to Gannon who neatly tucked into the lower right hand corner to give the Raiders a 3-2 lead. They held on to this lead for the win despite some solid attack from St. Johns. Alex DeSorgo came up big in this half for the Raiders with some very solid saves to preserve the win.
