The past two weeks have seen the Boys Soccer team struggle to find its way through a series of close games amassing a record of 1 win, 2 draws and 1 loss over that stretch.
The first of those games saw the Bulldogs take an early 2-0 lead over visiting Oliver Ames only to surrender 2 second half goals on the way to a 2-2 draw. Both goals were scored on the combination of Paul Corcoran to goal Griffin Roach.
Simon Cruz provided the only goal in the next game as the 'dogs traveled to Braintree to face the Wamps. Once again an early Bulldog goal would not hold up as the team surrendered a late goal and had to settle for its second straight draw. The draw qualified the Bulldogs for the MIAA State Tournament for the 12th year of the past 13.
The 'dogs would get on the winning end of things in the next game as they traveled to Stoughton where they earned a 2-0 win. Both Corcoran and Roach each found the back of the Black Knight goal in the victory. Freshmen Dylan Baird earned his first career point- assisting on Roach's goal.
The Sharon game last week saw the 'dogs fall behind early in the game before knotting it up at halftime on another Roach goal- this from TJ McCabe. But the Eagles scored again early in the 2nd half and then again with about 10 to play. The 'dogs pushed forward and Avery Minkin converted his first goal of the season but the 'dogs were unable to convert the game-tying goal.
The 'dogs look to bounce back when they travel to twice-beaten North Attleboro tonight.
