Red Devils Tame Wildcats
October 28, 2009 By Denis Vass of Graham High School
Graham took control early in tonight's match, as Luis Vega scored with a little over a minute into the game to lead Graham to a 1-0 victory tonight against visiting Eastern Randolph. Vega's goal was assisted by Jose Flores.
The game had huge ramifications, with the winner wrapping up third place in the conference. Graham played some outstanding defense tonight. The Wildcats outshot the Red Devils 14-10. Graham's Luis Camcacho recorded 10 saves. Eastern Randolph had 7 saves.
With the win, Graham improved to 7-8-3 overall, 6-5-1 in the Mid-State 2-A conference. The Wildcats fell to 5-8-1, 5-5-1 in the conference. Eastern Randolph has one game remaining with Bartlett Yancey, but can finish no better than 4th with a win. Cummings ended their season 6-6. A loss by the Wildcats in their next game will give Cummings 4th place.
Congradulations to the Red Devils for an outstanding season. Farwell to the Seniors- Eliseo Vertiz, Luis Vega, Ontonniel Echeverria, Ty Osborne, Victor Perez, and Christian Blanco. Your efforts this season are greatly appreciated.
Graham awaits the pairings for next week's state 2-A playoffs. |
