Tigers Play Well In Road Loss


In Casper on Friday the Rock Springs Tigers played well as they played against the defending 4A West Conference Champions, Natrona County Mustangs. The varsity Tigers regrouped well after their loss to Green River on Wednesday. The Tigers had some genuine opportunities to score especially in the second half. The lone goal in the match occurred in the 25th minute when the NC striker beat the Tiger defense and chipped a ball perfectly over the arms of Tyler Wilkinson and right under the crossbar. Storie Ratcliff, Pat Walker, Sandy Duncan and Matt Lehman all created and had some chances to equalize the score. The Tigers felt good about their performance even though the outcome was a loss.

Game Stats: Shots; RS 15, NC 14 - Keeper Saves; RS 9, NC 7 - Corner Kicks RS 0, NC 3 - Free Kicks; RS 5, NC 7 - Assists; RS 0, NC 1

In the JV match the young Tigers got to experience their first match action of the season. They were defeated by the JV Mustangs by the score of 4 - 1. The score at half time was NC 2 - RS 1. The lone goal for the JV Tigers was scored by Dakota Schneider in the first half.
