The Marysville Monarchs traveled down from Ohio to compete in this non-conference game. During the first half, both teams were playing competitively and skillfully keeping the score within a goal’s reach of being in the lead. As the scoreboard signaled it was halftime, both teams hustled off the field for water and a new game plan.
With the start of the second half, the Monarchs were strictly business. Slowly beating down the Trojans defense, they scored goal after goal.
