2013 Boys' Varsity Soccer September 30 VS Hamilton

The Maroons returned to the field in search of another win on Monday, as they hosted the Hamilton Hawkeyes. The Maroons were able to take advantage of a lot of errors made by the Hawkeyes. Bryce Eggers began the game's scoring when he crossed the ball to the Hamilton goal, where it hit off of a Hamilton defender and found its way into the net to put the Maroons up 1-0. Hamilton was able to fight back to score a goal of their own 10 minutes later, to tie the game up at one goal apiece. With nine minutes to go in the first half, the Maroons managed another goal off of a long Cody Machiela throw in that bounced off a Hamilton defender and found its way to the back of the net. Allyn Anthony finished the 1st half scoring with a nice shot that made it past the keeper to close out the first half with a score of 3-1 in favor of the Maroons.

 The second half didn't have as much scoring as the first half. The only goal came with 3 minutes remaining in the game, when Hamilton was able to fight for a goal to cut the Maroons lead to just one goal. The Maroons were able to fight off the Hawkeyes in the last couple minutes, to seal the 3-2 victory for the Maroons. With this victory, the Maroons improve to 9-3-4 on the season. Holland Christian will return to action on Wednesday, October 2, as they take on their cross-town rivals of Holland High School.
