Varsity Boys Soccer (7-0-1)

Marquette 9, Iron Mountain 1

The MSHS Varsity Boys Soccer Team battled the Iron Mountain Mountaineers on a cold and wet Thursday evening.   Marquette followed-up the 1-1 draw from the first meeting between the two teams by defeating Iron Mountain 9-1 in a mercy rule shortened win with 10 minutes to play.

Sophomore Nick Asmus lead the way with 4 goals.  Senior Connor Johnson added 2 goals while junior Nick Lindberg and sophomores Ezra Pickard and Max Dawson each had one goal apiece.  Lindberg also had 3 assists on the evening while junior Axel Vermaat chipped in with 2 assists in the contest.

Senior Liam Jeevar faced 4 shots in net.

From Head Coach Dan Salmon:

“We had this game circled on the calendar after tying them in the season opener 1-1.  We felt the score of that game didn’t reflect who we were as a team.  Tonight’s score does.”

Next Up:

The Varsity Boys Soccer Team will be back at home next Friday, October 9, when they host Sault Ste. Marie for Senior Night.  Match time is scheduled for 5:30 p.m. EST from Hart Stadium at MSHS.
