Varsity soccer got a hard fought win tonight vs. Lone Jack. The game was knotted up most of the first half until a hand ball was called with 4:30 left to play. Weston Crawford made good on the PK attempt to give the Tigers a 1-0 lead which held until halftime.
Both teams had opportunities slip by in the second half before Lone Jack managed to get one past Mateo Rivas to knot the score up 1-1 with 8:25 left in the game.
Undeterred, Green Ridge dug deep and managed to take the lead less than a minute later when Lucas Mason sent a ball through and Raul Ramirez ran onto, slipping the ball by the goalie and off the inside left post.
The Tigers managed to hold off the Mules for the final 8 minutes to get back above .500. Next up is the Spartan Invitational in Moberly on Friday and Saturday. The Tigers will face Crocker, host Moberly, and finish with Chillicothe.

GR8 things are happening in 4th grade!!! From Mrs. Davis: "Our class was learning what blind people can actually see, so after learning about it, we built an eye. Well it works like our eye, and it helps us understand different degrees of blindness and why some need glasses. We are going to be doing our experiment next week."
