Wildcats Finish 2nd At Cougar Invitational

FC took 2nd place in their tournament Saturday at Trinity Lutheran.

They won the first game in thrilling fashion, taking the lead with an Alex Hedges goal from a Luke Stirn assist. Trinity Lutheran equalized and the next seventy minutes were a defensive stalemate with Trinity Lutheran packing the penalty area leaving FC to hammer shot after shot until they took the lead on a world class cross from Alex Hedges and a clinical finish from Cledith Martin.

In the championship game, the heat, tired legs, a few unfortunate calls and missed easy finishes took their toll, leaving FC wanting with a 6-2 loss. Luke Stirn scored unassisted for the first goal and Cledith Martin scored the second off another Alex Hedges cross.

FC gets a day to rest tomorrow before traveling to Hauser to start the last week of the regular season. Varsity will start at 5:30.
