Boys soccer scores big shutout
Nearly every player on the YSHS soccer
team got his moment of glory in the team’s dominating 15–0
win over the Southeastern Trojans on Thursday, Sept. 8. The Bulldogs outshot
the Trojans 74–0.
The Bulldogs scored 4 times within the first 10 minutes
of play. Forwards Ben Armstrong, Ryan Silvert, James Butler and Asa Casenhiser
combined to score 3 more goals before the end of the half. The Bulldogs
maintained the upper hand in the second half, getting their 8th goal on
a header by Armstrong off a perfectly arched corner kick from Silvert.
The deal was sealed when the Bulldogs scored another
three goals in quick succession.
Armstrong scored 3 goals, Casenhiser, Butler and Silvert
each had 2, while Abeo Miller, Kevin Carr, Brandon Carver-Halley, Jake
GunderKline, Kyle Buchwalder, and Andrew Ferguson each scored a goal.

2 and Armstrong, Carr, and Ferguson each had 1. Goalie John Pamplin and
