NOHS Boys 1st Soccer Game vs Fern Creek - VICTORY!!!

It's that time of year again for FALL SOCCER!!!  I'm so excited and a bit nervous for this season.  Robert will be playing VARSITY ONLY!  The Varsity team is comprised of 2 seniors, a bunch of Juniors and the rest are sophomores with one or two freshman... yikes ... we are young!

The beginning of each season the NOHS soccer teams host the Mustang Classic.  Our first game is Tuesday, August 18, 2015 at 8:00 pm on the North field!  (Last year our fields were destroyed so we had to host the tournament at Collins).  It was so nice to have it at NORTH.


Robert started on the wing.  It was so fun to hear his name be announced.  #20 Robert Lowe!!!



The game was very exciting - the ball went back and forth, but the other team just didn't have a good shot, whereas we did.  Our first goal was off a FREE KICK.  Matthew Morris took the kick with his left foot and hit the top right corner - beautiful shot.   1-0


Our second goal was off a long play where we passed the ball around a lot, then Grey Kinnison took a shot, but the goalie blocked it, but didn't catch it so Robert ran up on the ball and booted it in with his left foot!!!  2-0




Our third goal was a very quick goal.  Kaleb Patterson passed the ball to Keyon while Robert was making a run.  Keyon passed it long and Robert ran up on it with no hesitation.  Goalie and Robert both went for the ball, it popped up and Grey Kinnison followed it with a shot into the goal!!!  3-0


At half time we were 3-0.


Robert started the second half.  We didn't score but we had a few opportunities.  The coach subbed the starters out a little faster (considering we have a 3-0 lead) but then we got scored on 3-1 ... 10 minutes later 3-2.  YIKES!!!


Luckily the game ended.  3-2.  WE WON!!!
