Windham

throughout the second half. Windham played strong defense keeping the ball
towards the Biddeford goal, resulting in several shots on Biddeford’s goal for
a lot of the half.
Nick
Rose scored Windham’s fourth goal.
#35 Jamie Luoko |
After
an exciting game, the final score was Windham 4, Biddeford 2.
“The
boys played with heart. We spotted Biddeford a 2-goal lead; those are earned
goals by Biddeford,” observed Coach Wally LeBlanc. “Then we needed our players
to dig in and come back and prove they could play smart soccer. I feel like
when we possess the ball and switch the field that’s what allowed us to have
those counterattacks. That’s what made the difference in the second half.”
