Here is the summary of what I heard about the game:
Mauldin scored on a corner kick in the first 2 minutes of the game. Mauldin scored again about the 20 minute mark. At the half Mauldin 2 Byrnes 0. Mauldin scored in the first 5 minutes of the second half. Byrnes scores on a PK about the 20 minute mark. Byrnes scores at the 25 minute mark. Byrnes has a shot to tie in the last 2 minutes but the ball hits the post and bounces out. Several yellow card given out during the game. Both teams have injured players on the bench with should be back for the playoffs. This is second hand information if mavsupporter or mavs soccer have additional detail please update.
Academic Magnet and Stratford was cancelled due to lightning and rain. The game was 0-0 about 20 minutes in when the storm hit. I am not sure if they will make it up due to limited days to do so.
I was not able to attend the game, but KCC's account sounds about right. The good news for Maudlin is they will hopefully return 3-4 starters for the play-offs. This gives Czar a lot more flexibility in his line up. Several key players have been injured or forced to play out of position for most of the season.
That's about right except the corner kick at 2 minutes. It wasnt a corner kick, it was regular play down in the left corner. A Mauldin player followed the ball out about 3 feet outside the line according to all the Byrnes players in the area. She then kicked it back in and the ref was not in the area yet to see it. The Byrnes girls just all stopped and watched the Mauldin player kick the ball into the goal because they assumed it was dead. It was very odd. Nobody challenged her and even the keeper didnt attempt to get the ball. Bad assumption.
A yard outside the line? I find that a little hard to believe. You could have told me 8 inches, heck, I woulda believed 16". But 36"? Little off dontcha think? Can someone disprove the 3ft argument or was that how it really went? If so...wow.
These kinds of games are no fun for anybody. Hilton Head Prep played the last 30 minutes of the game with 6 players in the field.
My question from the stands is: Would the First Baptist players be more embarrassed by a 10-0 score played against 11 players or a 7-1 score played against 6?
