9/12 A Night To Forget in Dublin
The Road Once Again Not Kind To Wolves
The Wolves travelled to Dublin Coffman on this warm Thursday evening with hopes of improving on their respective road records. They returned home licking their wounds after a pair of defeats.
The JVA squad led off the evening facing a 'Rocks JV squad that played more like a varsity team with quality spacing and passing. The Wolves played hard throught the game but could not muster much offense and ended up falling 0-4.
The Varsity Wolves followed with a stong effort against the Coffman varsity, and seemed the stronger team through much of the contest, particularly in the opening 30 minutes. They opened up the scoring in the 18th minute when Ryan Foisett centered a ball that Alex Vincente knocked in to give the Wolves the early lead. That lead did not last long, however, as two minutes later Coffman evened the score on a PK follwing a rare mistake by our fine back line. The tie score lasted throughout the remainder of the fist half.
The two teams battled evenly thereafter, though Coffman broke the tie on a good shot that Drew had no chance to stop about 7 minutes into the 2nd half. The Wolves played well but could not find another score, and Coffman closed the scoring with a third goal with 5 minutes remaining, going away with a 1-3 win.
The Wolves' Varsity road record fell to 1-4, but they return home next Tuesday hoping to maintain their unblemished home record of 3-0.
