SOCCER
Chargers get first win
North Montgomery boys’ soccer team defeated Rossville on Wednesday 6-5.
North was behind 2-0 early in the game but came roaring back to earn the victory.
Braydon Osborne scored five goals for the Chargers and Kevin Toledano scored one goal. Assists were provided by Tommy Varney, Joseph Padron and Toledano.
“I am very pleased with the guys for fighting back from an early deficit,” Charger coach Tristain Hall said. “The score was closer than we would have liked, but the guys showed resiliency and battled the whole game.”
North Montgomery has a few starters out with injuries but had good defensive performances from the new starters.
“Ben Oppy and Chris Jara did a great job stepping in and played major roles defensively,” Hall said.
The win was the first victory of the year for the Chargers who now stand 1-5.
North Montgomery hosted North Putnam on Thursday and will be at Danville on Saturday.
