Marshall came out and played hard like they always do. I thought we controlled the ball most of the game. They had two good chances at scoring a goal. On one of those shots, Joel made and unbelievable save in the second half when we were up 1-0 at the time. One of their kids hit a shot as Joel was moving to his left. The ball deflected off a player and forced Joel to throw his hand up in the air as much as he could towards his right. He just got a hand on the ball and deflected the ball up over the cross bar. It was one of the best saves I've seen Joel make in his career.
More Quotes from Kent Briscoe:
We played another solid defensive game and we passed the ball pretty well. Fatima played a very defensive style of setup having just two kids mainly play on the attack. Most of them were shelled in the box, but for the most part we were successful getting the ball where we wanted it.Kent Briscoe
We played really well for this being the first game of the year. I am pleasantly surprised. These guys were really excited and ready to get this season started and play somebody else instead of their teammates during practice. They came out and did not play into any bad habits. It was a pretty strong performance for a full 40 minutes.

Our defense has really been outstanding and fun to watch. This is the best start that the boys' soccer program has had since I've been here.
