Rock Springs Tiger Soccer

On Saturday the Varsity Rock Springs Tiger Soccer team started their season. Their first match of the day was against the Powell Panthers at 11:00am. The match started well as the Tigers scored first in the 4th minute when Storie Ratcliff scored off of a great ball sent by Jesse Love. Powell was next on the board when they scored off of a free kick in the 20th minute. The scored was tied at 1 a piece at the half. The second half saw the Tigers recapture the lead at 2 - 1 in the 73rd minute when Pat Walker sent a nice cross into the box that Storie Ratcliff headed in. The Tiger lead was not for long as the Panthers scored in the 76th minute off of a corner kick. The match ended in a tie at 2 - 2. Because it was jamboree format there was no overtime or tie breaker. Several Tiger players made their first varsity start such as; Jesse Love, Austin Lever and Camilo Anturi Flores. The following Tigers made their varsity debut; Cody East, Todd Gray, Kohl Stewart, Jordan Rood and Tyler Legerski...

Mother Nature threw our early season for a loop. The snow storm has cancelled the JV Jamboree scheduled for Saturday March 20th. It will not be rescheduled. The varsity team is still planning on going to the Worland Jamboree but will leave early Saturday instead of Friday night. Their first match was scheduled for 9am has been moved back to 11am. We don't know what else the Jamboree holds for us for opponents or times.

Monday March 8th will be the first practice for the 2010 edition of the RSHS Tiger Soccer Team. The practice will be from 4:00pm to 6:00pm and will be held at the football field behind White Mountain Elementary field. All players need to remember their paperwork (physical, activities release, emergency card and proof of insurance) and their equipment (soccer cleats, shin guards, outdoor clothes and water). In the case of inclement weather, could we please have the students listen to the announcements at school or contact Coach Atkinson at the high school on Monday after lunch (room 304a).
