A stiff wind from the South was blowing all evening and hampered both offense and defense for both teams. Any touch down wind from offense quickly collected speed and outpaced even the quickest offensive player to the endline. A well cleared ball from the defense seemed to track backwards at times, keeping the attack alive. The Wildcats played with the wind the first half but quickly learned to keep the ball close and controlled play. The second half found them with the wind in their faces and they adjusted well, playing long balls over the defense with cutting runs from midfielders and forwards.
In other play, the JV squad lost their opening game of the season 0-1 in a hard fought back and forth battle. The score remained knotted through the first half. Warrensburgs JV squad finally knocked one home in the second half and Harrisonville was unable to break through their defense to equalize.
There is no rest for the weary as the ladies travel to Holden tomorrow night. Good luck and keep rolling Cats!
Pictures are downloading as I sleep. Good Night All. zzzzZZZZzzz
