The Comet's Continued Flight.

The Tunstall Trojans were able to smell but only one rose Friday afternoon during their match against the Comets of Halifax, while the majority of game was spent working through the brier patch.

Halifax moved into a quick lead, by scoring within the first six minutes of the game following a scorching race into Tunstall's back field. The Comets would then score a second time, before the Trojans launched their first goal of the match, and the 2008 season, into the Halifax net to place the score at 2-1. Sadly, however, this would be the Ladies' only goal of the night. Although, Halifax continued to increase their winning margin and ended the first half with a blistering scoreboard view of 5-1. Tunstall was being ousted out of almost every possession opportunity and could not seem to gain enough control of the ball.

After halftime and some much needed advisement from the Trojan coaching staff, the Ladies were able to play with enhanced technique in the second 40 minutes. The game finished, however, with the scoreboard reading 8-1. Soccer is a sport that is so very easy to learn, yet so very hard to master. That is the reason why Tunstall has always continued to learn from its weaknesses and work hard to improve upon them. Which is exactly what the team will be doing this upcoming week, as the Ladies do not have any games scheduled and will instead be enjoying their annual spring break from school, as well as practicing for the soccer pitch.
The Trojan Boys Team defeated Halifax by a score of 5-1. This was the first time for Tunstall to win a match up against Halifax, CONGRATULATIONS Boys!

Only two more matches to play in the post season and it will be time for District Soccer to begin!! One can merely wait for the encroachment of cougars and bengals and bulldogs upon the Trojan stadium this spring! And of course the harsh taming of these beasts that will be sure to follow!
