NorthWood-Warsaw 0-4 (0-1)

Warsaw defeats NorthWood 0-4, the JV loses 1-4 (Jerson goal). Yellow cautions for Matt, Kyle and I forgot who received the third yellow. Next up tomorrow (Thursday at #3 Goshen). Bus leaves at 3:45. Today: NO practice (well deserved day off to recover after the Varsity has played 4 games in a 4 day stretch). On a different note; both the opposing coach and some of the officials were complaining about the game field condition. It did not look like it had been mowed and if it was done, the deck sure was set way too high. I have no clue how people are supposed to play soccer on a field that has tall grass and is very soft (rolling it would not be a bad idea). When the players take the field, you can't even see their soccer cleats The lighting in the northwest corner was not optimal either since it has only two of the three working since the start of the season. I guess all in all, the result matches the condition of the field. In all honesty, you rarely hear me complain about the condition of the facility because I really only care about the field itself. If you have never played soccer you probably think the pitch looks good but go ahead and try and run on it with a ball. We are coming up on a long home stand and actually we will play four of the next 5 games at home so hopefully something will be done.
