Co-Ed Soccer: Lincolnville 4, Bristol 3
(By Ben Edes) 

Well, I got my wish — competition, at last.

The kids were very good. 

On a steamy, sultry day on the Lincolnville pitch, the home team Lynx were able to hold off a strong and determined Bristol squad by a score of 4-3 on Monday, Sept. 25.

While Lincolnville never trailed — and even held a two-goal lead in the second half until the 58 minute mark, the Bristol eleven simply refused to be put away.

The game was evenly played throughout, and Bristol made the first serious try at three minutes forcing LCS keeper Matt Kremin to deflect a hard drive over the goal from point blank range.

It took until the 15:41 mark before the Lynx finally got on the board on a very pretty corner kick by midfielder Jack Fishman to winger Jackson Bernier in open space in the box just past the penalty spot. Bernier smoothly one-touched the ball back to the near post for the tally.

About eight minutes later, Bristol evened the score with a drive up the middle that split the LCS defense. Keeper Kremin had no chance on the ensuing shot.

It did not stay tied for long.

With three minutes left in the half, midfielder Mason Clark found Bernier with a nice pass to left center outside of the box, and Bernier let lose a shot through the defense to the far post to beat the keeper. The half ended with LCS up by one.

Once again, the lead was short-lived; at 30:54, Bristol was able to convert a corner kick for the tie, only to be quickly down again when at 31:22 Bernier feed Kremin, now playing striker. Kremin dribbled to open space to his left and nailed a long hard shot to the upper back corner of the net, a perfectly lovely shot.

Bristol came back strongly and came close at the 46 minute mark on a loose ball in the box after a well-kicked corner that forced keeper Griffin Dubrow to save it twice, ending by falling on the ball just before a Bristol forward reached it. That was followed at 50:39 by a hands ball called between 25 to 30 yards straight out from the Bristol goal. Fishman lined his shot up and sent it over the keeper’s outstretched hands for the insurance goal. Dubrow had another fine save deflecting a strong shot from his left by Bristol’s best forward. LCS’s insurance disappeared seven minute later with a Bristol breakaway that brought them back to within one with only two minutes left to play.

As if the game had not been exciting enough, an illegal passback to the keeper was called in the LCS box with 15 seconds left resulting in an indirect kick only five yards away from the goal.

With the entire LCS team in the goal on the end line, Bristol tried a quick touch and kick play, but the kick was too slow, and an unknown LCS hero blocked the shot, and another cleared the ball out of the box as the game ended.

The play on both sides was outstanding.

For Lincolnville, in addition to the players already mentioned, Jaden Johnson, Mikayla Talbot, and Myah Hansen put in s number of fine minutes in the forward line. Dubrow also put in a strong showing during the first half at striker before moving back to play keeper in the second. Kara Andrews and Aiden Aselton were highly effective at the midfield positions, and the defensive team of Lili Clement, Lincoln Outerbridge, John Pessara, and Emmit Dayhoof played exceedingly well against a challenging Bristol offensive unit.

LCS continues its quest to defend its championship on Wednesday, Sept. 27 in Camden against the Camden-Rockport sixth graders. 

Girls Soccer: Medomak 3, Oceanside 0 
(By Andrea Williamson) 

It was like a summer day; what a game day for soccer.

MMS started off a little sluggish, but came to life to pull off the win.

Chelsea Sykes scored her first middle school goal of a beautiful corner kick from Annie Vannoy. Chelsea took the corner kick and placed the ball into the back of the net. This happened with just a few minutes left in the first half giving MMS the lead 1-0.

In the second half, Lizzi Swan scored an unassisted goal with about 12 minutes gone in the second half. 

The final goal for MMS came from Megan Lee off an assist from Rachel Readinger with about 18 minutes gone in the second. This was Lee’s first middle school goal as well and gave MMS a 3-0 win. 

Great defense was played by Zaniah Puchalski, Julia Kunesh and Quinn Overlock. Great distribution of the ball was done by Alyssa Creamer, Annie Vannoy, and Autumn Ripley.
