Varsity Split games on Casper Road Swing


The varsity RS Tiger soccer squad got their much needed first victory of the season when they defeated Natrona County High in Casper on Friday. Kyle Howe scored the lone goal of the game in the second half with an assist credited to Storie Ratcliff. The Tigers played well in most aspects of the game and Tyler Hamilton recorded his first clean sheet of the season.


On Saturday the Tigers were defeated by the defending state champions Kelly Walsh Trojans zero to one. The game was tied at half time and KW used the wind at their back well in the second half. Just three minutes into the second half the trojans scored off of a 30 yard shot. The tigers could not muster much offense into the wind and played well just not well enough to win.


Varsity - (1 - 4 - 2)


Over the weekend the junior varsity team dropped both games. They lost 0 - 2 to Natrona and 3 - 5 to Kelly Walsh. Goal scorers for the JV tigers were Riley Yerkovich, Storie Ratcliff and Pat Walker.
