9/3/24
The boys delivered a heart-pounding performance in their third showdown of the season against Charlotte Christian on Tuesday night! The scoreboard lit up with a nail-biting 1-1 tie, but don't let that fool you – our Knights were on fire! Between the posts, Zander Gray was an absolute brick wall, pulling off a jaw-dropping SEVEN saves! Talk about keeping us in the game! But wait, there's more! The defensive line of Bradley Goins, Alec Cwynar, Christian Hyun, and Duncan McKinney stood strong like a steel curtain, shutting down attacks left and right. These boys were everywhere at once! As the second half kicked off, Hans Bakshi took control of the midfield and managed it like 5th-grade homework. And when it came down to the wire, who else but Miles Bunting to save the day? With nerves of steel, he blasted home the equalizer from a penalty kick outside the 18-yard box. Talk about a clutch performance! Go Knights!
