The Jags tied 0-0, losing the Continental League Championship. “We were obviously the stronger team but just couldn’t find a way to score, but otherwise our connection and our intensity was really high so I’m proud of that. We just have to find the net,” defense midfielder Clara Geuzaine ‘24 said. “[Losing League] wasn’t the best. It’s better than last year and like, I know our team and we are doing really good. I don’t want to jinx it but like hopefully [we’ll do] good [in playoffs].”](https://rockmediaonline.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Copy-of-DSC_4277-1-1200x868.jpg)

JV boys soccer fell to CT 3-1 on Thursday as the Cougars scored three goals in 15 minutes to seal the win.
After a long rain delay, the JV boys soccer team took the field to take on the Cherokee Trail Cougars. CT led 1-0 at halftime, but they weren’t done. They put together a rally at the beginning of the second half, and just like that, it was 3-0 cougars.
The game was definitely a disappointment for a team who had such high expectations going into the season.
“We were very separated as a team. We need to build up chemistry and come back next week ready to play,” right back Kyle Cummings ‘19 said.
The team’s next game is against Rocky Mountain at RCHS on August 30th.
