Batesville vs JCD Varsity Soccer (9-4)
The Bulldogs junior varsity boys soccer team played their fourth game of the season on Thursday evening at Jac-Cen-Del. Batesville was heading into the game looking to bounce back from their poor performance in their previous game. In the early minutes, Jac-Cen-Del applied intense pressure on the Batesville defense. The Eagles were able to split the Bulldog center backs multiple times, but Batesville goalkeeper Ian Yorn stepped up to stop the Eagles scoring chances. It took roughly 15 minutes before the Bulldogs were able to slow the Jac-Cen-Del momentum and begin controlling possession. With 16 minutes remaining in the first half, Ethan Grossman was able to put the Bulldogs on the scoreboard first. The Bulldogs continued to maintain possession in midfield and created another goal scoring opportunity minutes later. Garrett Wagner sent in a cross from the left side that was finished on a one time shot by Justin Puente. The
first half ended with the Bulldogs in front, 2-0.
In the second half the Bulldogs built on the possession they established in the first half. Batesville’s midfield controlled the ball and created mutliple scoring opportunites by playing good passing combinations. Justin Puente scored his second goal of the game ten minutes.
