Elkhart Christian Academy-NorthWood 3-3 (1-1)

Three players show up without all of their equipment, the bus never shows up so the activity buses are pulled out of the garage and up to ECA we go. The announcer seems to be more prepared at least. On a wing (Talon Field) and a prayer we start the national anthem followed by the theme to MNF. The game itself goes back and forth all night with little sustained possession. NorthWood goes ahead 1-0 in the 22nd after assists from Jesus to Dennyz to Beebe (goalscorer). In the 29th, ECA ties the game 1-1. In the second half ECA scores again right after the kickoff in the 41st, 2-1. NW answers in the 48th with a free kick from Beebe that sails over the keeper, 2-2. ECA takes the lead again in the 61st, 3-2. Brayton's pass in the 63rd ends up in front of Isaac's feet who after a couple of nice touches on the ball, shoots the ball in the right corner, 3-3. In the 74th, Brandon Barahona scores a goal that is disallowed (handball) which keeps the game at a draw.
