ORR drops to 3-6-1
ORR host Dighton Rehobeth on Wednesday 10/10
ORR battled Seekonk to the final whistle in this back and forth night game. The Bulldogs had the better chances where they created four golden opportunities that were easier to put in the back
of the net that to score. Paul Graves had two chances to be the hero of the match but his timing was off enough that he never got a touch on the ball. Robbie Magee was a step behind a beautifull cross from Max Houck that was just out of reach for a goal of the year candidate header.
Late in the game Magee took a cross from Freshman Evan Santos but sent his volley into the arms of Seekonk's keeper. Minutes later Mike Bliss let loose a cannon that found the Warrior's keeper's chest for the easy no see save.
Seekonk scored the lone goal and the game winner from a corner kick with six minutes remaining, and was able to absorb an all out attack by the Bulldogs.
Coach John Sullivan
"This was without a doubt our best performance of the season. We were definitely the better team today but our lack of finishing let this one slip away. I was very proud of the play today. The kids displayed a desire to compete and played a strong a game as any coach could ask."
"Freshman keeper Melvin Vincent was superb in the net and the defensive play of CC Carando, Teddy Costa, Tyler Hunter and Will Santos kept Seekonk off balance and unable to mount any kind of threatening attack."
"Chilean exchange student Alvaro played well up front complimenting the speed of Alden Truesdale and Magee. "
"This game was ours for the taking but we failed to put it away. Part of the process of playing good soccer is the players must find a way to win. We know the way, now we need to execute and put the chances away.
