Lexington in all white vs. Clover in all navy. Overcast, 67 on a fresh cut and lined soccer field. Clover is a blue-collar hard working team, while Lexington will look to exploit the Blue Eagles with their clever, technical skill.

McGill's throw in is headed out by a leaping Freiburger. The Wildcat keeper spills it and gives a second chance. 6s and 7s in the back, but it goes out for a goalkick.

Andrews scrambles and slips in the quagmire in front of the goal and danger is averted for Clover. Lexington seems to be finding a rhythm. Yonge is hammered from behind in front of the press box by #19. Beaty's free kick again is bad and it's cleared out by the Eagles. Not sure what's up with the 30-yards on the floor drives.

Lexington Two may want to invest in a field maintenance crew or learn to grow grass in the middle of a soccer field. Looks like football has taken its' toll.
