Manual 1 Kentucky Country Day 0 (7th Region Semis)

[The Double Deuce]

Mild upset in the brutal 7th region as the Crimsons, coached by Taylor Wood, end the season of Top 3 ranked KCD 1-0.  The Bearcats suffer their first defeat of the season and end their magical 2021 campaign 20-1-1.  Bitter ending, to be sure, but a season that everyone associated with the program can be very proud of.

Manual moves on to face the Tigers of St. X in the 7th Region, the winner getting the unenviable task of traveling up 71 to face North Oldham.   Manual and St. Xavier played way back on August 21st, with Manual winning 2-1.

@The Double Deuce GREAT Job of updating the Boys Soccer Playoffs!!!

I think this is tick up for me and I'll call this a clear upset.  20-0-1 for KCD was the clear favorite.  They had a great season.  But Manual played inspired soccer and anything can happen in the playoffs.  Should be a tight game vs St. X.  But I'd say Manual is the underdog in that game too, even though they beat X earlier in the year.
