2016 Westview Soccer Shootout Recap

This past Saturday, the Panthers traveled to Amish Country to play in the Westview tournament. It was amazing to see all these Amish in their buggies pulled by 1HP going down the road. The soccer complex just east of the Blue Gate had been mowed but not very short. The temperatures are "only" in the eighties for the morning game but half the team was already hot before stepping on the pitch due to the fact that once of the mini buses did not have any of the two AC units working at all. The morning game against Huntington North was won by a Matt Thornton goal, 1-0. The afternoon game was a little different story. It was very steamy and our opponent (Argos) was a little stronger then the one we faced earlier in the day. Argos beat us fairly easy, 5-1, the lone goal coming from the elder Auky (nice slip to the right). There is a lot of work to be done to get ready for Game #1 against Tippecanoe Valley High School on August 18 (home game).
