Playing against the St. Dominic’s Crusaders, the Francis Howell Central junior varsity boys soccer team lost their most recent game, resulting in a score of 2-1. On Oct. 3. During the first half of the Spartans’ game, the team gave up a goal after an indirect free kick. Goalkeeper Jack Morris accidentally double touched the ball after it was already released from his possession. Despite failing to block a shot from the ensuing free kick, Morris recognized his errors and continued to persevere through the game.
“I felt very disappointed,” Morris said. “I felt the confidence level drain, but I feel that we did start to pick it up in the second half.”
The boys keep their spirits up, preparing for their next game on Oct. 19 against Lafayette High School.
