Hard Loss for Maple Mountain Soccer

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on
Maple Mountain boys soccer team played tough in their first region game on March 30, coming out with a loss of 2-1 against Salem Hills High.  Maple Mountain came out strong, but could not overcome the Skyhawk’s skills.  What was thought by most to be a shut out for Salem, Maple Mountain’s new team held them off, scored the first goal, and had possession of the ball for most of the game.  The game ended with a loss due to a debateable penalty kick, however, the boys competed with class and heart.
