Spotlight on U14 Boys Soccer
After a narrow loss last week against Ridley College, the U14 Boys’ Soccer team was back on the road facing the top-ranked Appleby College in an intense matchup this week. The Cyclones came out strong with relentless pressure, led by the blazing speed of winger Matteo LiVolsi. With our central midfielders dominating their battles and controlling the tempo, CDS held most of the possession in the first half.
Defensively, Anthony Rotundo and Armaan Sidanawere relentless in shutting down Appleby’s top striker and helping keep the game scoreless going into halftime. But the boys were hungry for more, and Ricky Ren delivered in the second half. He took on Appleby’s backline, weaving through defenders, and struck the net three times to give CDS a commanding lead. A huge shout-out to Thomas Pitts for delivering well placed corner kicks to assist those critical plays.
Appleby made a late surge, scoring twice in the dying minutes, but CDS held their ground, maintaining possession and sealing a 3-2 victory. The team is fired up and gaining confidence as they look ahead to their next challenge against Villanova next week.
Stay tuned for more action from this rising
squad!
Go Cyclones!
