Boys’ Soccer Passes Through First Round of Playoffs

Words: Michael Moore

On Friday, October 24th, the Centennial soccer team took on Long Reach in a playoff showdown.

The Eagles got on the board first when senior Tommy Wang scored on a free kick about 10 minutes into the game.

After the Eagles took the lead, they did not look back. Seniors Kevin Wilson and Andrew Flick were defensive leaders, allowing Long Reach minimal opportunities to tie the game.

On the offensive end, senior Alex Johnson and junior Michael Merkey lead the offensive charge, holding the ball for longer periods of time as to limit the chances for Long Reach to score.

The Eagles held on for a 1-0 win and are going to advance to the next round. They will play at City College of Baltimore on Tuesday. Stay tuned to chswingspan.com to follow the Eagles throughout the playoffs.
