Varsity soccer got a 2-0 win vs. Paseo Academy in game 2 of the Clinton Cup on Wednesday evening. Although the Tigers had multiple scoring opportunities in the first half, Paseo was able to thwart most of the chances. Trenton Sawyer took a pass from Jaden Xiloj with just over 15 minutes to play to net to net the Tigers first goal. The Tigers again controlled much of the tempo in the second half. Their loan goal came at just under 10 minutes into the half on a ball Max Tylar put through the defensive line that Jack Hoos was able to put in the back of the net. RJ Hampton-Shultz and Denver Bannister combined for the the shutout in goal.

Varsity soccer began the Clinton Cup tournament on Tuesday with a 4-1 loss to the host team. Clinton got off to a hot start with 2 goals in the first 5 minutes, however the Tigers settled in and played a more solid half until the Cardinals netted one more goal with about 7 minutes remaining in the first half. The team played better in the second half and was able to make some more runs and control the ball a bit more in the second half but it wasn't enough to make the comeback. Clinton got one more goal with just under 5 minutes left, but the Tigers fought to the end. Wyatt Crawford made a great run to beat the defense on a trough ball sent by Jack Hoos to net the Tigers lone goal in the final 5 minutes.

JV soccer went 1-1 on this past Saturday in Stover. In game 1 vs. Iberia the Tigers got a 4-2 win. Jonny Xiloj scored 2 goals with Reid Hagedorn and Jackson Xiloj each netting one.
