Post Season Game Day #1

At 5 pm today, our post season kicks off. The opponent is the other ranked team in our Sectional, West Noble. West Noble is ranked #15 in 2A while the Panthers are ranked # 10. The Chargers compete in the NECC. Their record is 13-3 and they went 7-0 in conference play. Henry Torres (#9) is by far their biggest threat. He scored a hat trick in last week's game vs Westview (3-0 W). He is a clinical finisher who scored twice against us last year in the Angola Sectional semi final. West Noble's losses come against Goshen (NW result 1-0 W), Northridge (5-1 L, NW result also a L) and Bethany Christian (1-0 L, NW result 2-2). The other 2 common opponents were Wawasee and Lakeland which were wins for West Noble (same for NW). Their signature win is vs. Elkhart Central (3-2). West Noble drew Ft Wayne Carroll 1-1 but got a forfeit win. Lakeland and Angola play at 7 pm (or following our match if there is OT/PK shoot out). The winner of today's games face off at 5 pm Wednesday for a spot in the Sectional Final (Saturday at 2 pm). The theme for today's game for the NW Student Section is "WHITEOUT". We are hoping for a large fan turnout in support of our boys tonight! The weather will be perfect (68 and sunny). We have had a great regular season, setting many records. But starting tonight, all teams are 0-0.Let's go 1-0 !!!
