Another Tough Opponent Another Loss



On Tuesday in Cheyenne the Rock Springs Tigers played against the East Thunder Bird. East was coming off of a win against their cross town rivals the nationally ranked Cheyenne Central Indians just the week before. The Tigers took the wind in the first half and had their best chances then but were always thwarted by the T-Bird defense. The score at the half was 0 - 0. In the second half the T-Birds used the strong wind to their advantage and scored twice. The goals came in the 47th minute of play and in the 52nd minute of play. The first T-Bird goal was a roofing shot past the keeper from about 25 yards away. The second and last goal of the match was put past the keeper after a scrum in front of the net preceded by a corner kick. The Tigers played hard but could not do what was needed to get close to the East goal. The final score of the match 2 - 0. This drops the Tigers to 1 - 5 - 1.

Man of the Match: Luke Aust - continued great play as a centerback

Match Facts: Shot; RS 7, CE 21 - Keeper Saves; RS 14, CE 5 - Corner Kicks; RS 1 - CE 9; Free Kicks; RS 4, CE 6

Spring Break and Schedule Changes

The games versus Green River that were originally scheduled during our Spring Break have been re-scheduled. We will now have the JV game on March 30 at 5pm in Green River with the Varsity Game being March 31st at 5pm in Rock Springs. We still have our two home matches against the Casper schools (KW and NC) the first weekend of spring break (4/3, 4/4). These matches will be very important for our seeding at regionals. The team also is scheduled to practice on Monday and Tuesday of spring break, but will get the rest of the week off. Please make your family plans so that the can coincide with the team plans. The changes to the game schedule and the practice schedule have been changed on their own links, see the links to your right.
