The boys soccer team travelled to take on DeWitt on Thursday night. The boys started out strong for the first 15 minutes, controlling the game and dominating possession. The Sabers managed a quick counter attack to get their first goal of the night, and took advantage of the Kings' drop in intensity to make it 5-0 before the half. The boys regrouped and showed much more quality in the second half to hold the scoreline at a 5-0 loss on the night. Randyn Mielke was the team's Man of the Match on the night. Randyn came in as a substitute and led by example by playing tough, physical defense and never giving up on a play. Next up for the kings is a trip to Burlington on Monday to take on the Grayhounds in the first round of 3A substate.
