The kings soccer team traveled to Epworth to take on Western Dubuque on Friday night. The jv boys fought hard and had several good chances to score, but one unfortunate mistake led to the 1-0 defeat on the night. The varsity kings struggled to get going against the physical and intense Bobcat team. Three early mistakes lead to an early deficit that they struggled to fight back from. Sam Hoffman was a bright spot for the kings on the day. Sam brought some much needed intensity to the team, and has immediately stepped in as a vocal leader. He won several headers and prevented multiple attacks from progressing into the defensive third. For all of these reasons, Sam was selected as the team's Man of the Match.

The boys soccer team took on a tough Assumption team on Monday night. The JV kings kicked things off with a hard fought, 2-0 loss. Saul Xique Marcos made several big saves and Randyn Mielke locked down the right side of the defense to keep the game tight. The Kings brought even more intensity in the 2nd half, but couldn't quite finish off a few good looks to get on the scoreboard. The varsity kings struggled to get started and found themselves again in an early 3-0 deficit. The boys responded well to lock it down for the remainder of the half against a very strong Assumption team. After the half, the Kings started off looking more dangerous, but ran out of gas as the game got away from them. They took a 10-0 loss on the night. Ammar Albaghdadi was selected as the team's Man of the Match, for the intensity he brought to the defense all night long. His energy helped the kings fight back against the early deficit, and find their footing before the game got away from them. Both teams now look forward to a tough set of games against Pleasant Valley on Thursday night!
