Maybe a better name for the school is Trinity not at Greenlawn but south of the Toll Rd by the tent. A detour driven excursion gets us to Greenlawn's athletic
facilities (the school only plays three sports: soccer, basketball and girls golf)only to find out that due to the referee shortage, we will have two referees for the Varsity game. Kick off starts right on time after an abbreviated warm up. The field is comparable to our old game field which means the ball will do unpredictable things. It takes us 12 minutes to find the back of the net for the first time; Aiden passes a nice ball right up the middle to Carlos who finishes nicely for a 0-1 lead. Dominic gets in on the action while private jets for the Notre Dame game whiz by to the south of us. Dom's thru ball to Alex is perfect and Alex has little trouble banging the ball into the ropes, 0-2. We have to wait until the 34th to see more scoring action when Andrew Meyers finds Soloman near the box. Sol has no problem slotting the ball by the very average Trinity keeper, 0-3. Three minutes later, Sol turns his scoring efforts into a brace after Grant gets the ball to him, 0-4. This comfortable lead means everyone gets playing time in the second half and some of our starters with minor injuries get to rest. Andrew Meyers finishes up the score in the 72nd after a Bryce assist. Andrew's quick poke is just what the doctor ordered. The final score is 0-5 and the Panthers move to 5-2-2 on the season. Due to Trinity injuries, only one half of JV is played. The final is 0-0. Monday practice on the turf; the Varsity meets in the lockerroom to start. JV on the field. Next opponent is Warsaw at home Tuesday.
