Greyhounds rule the night at WMHS, 1-0
Cam Poissom’s unassisted goal gave the visiting Lisbon High School Greyhounds a 1-0 win over Wiscasset Middle High School Monday night.
With 12:26 left in the first half, Poissom broke free and chipped a shot over Wolverine keeper Conlon Ranta.
The game featured 80 minutes of action including a few collisions around and away from the ball. Lisbon was whistled and given two yellow cards, one in each half of play.
Max Sampson had a nice shot for the Wolverines from the left wing with 10:50 left in the half, but Greyhound keeper Jonah Sautter was there for the stop. Four minutes later, the Greyhounds were whistled for charging outside the 18-yard line, but Brandon Goud’s direct kick was blocked and cleared away.
Sampson made another nice run in the closing minute of the half, but his shot sailed wide left. Russell Marr’s direct kick at 28:13 of the second half was knocked down by Sautter and punted down field. Another open shot by Marr at 22:18 sailed over the cross bar.
The momentum continued swinging back and forth until the 12:30 mark, when Lisbon kept control of the ball deep in Wiscasset territory for over four minutes. Nick Lerette’s shot with 8:41 left to play was finally grabbed by Ranta and cleared down field.
With 7:30 left, Wolverine Aidan Carlson attempted to center a pass to Grant Hefler, but Sautter was there to breakup the play. Later, Hefler saw Marr open but his pass was too far out in front. Wiscasset’s final shot from Aidan Carlson was caught by Sautter.
Both teams were about even on shots. Ranta had 10 saves for WMHS.
WMHS will travel to Telstar on Sept. 15 and Mountain Valley Sept. 22.
