Well…once again Conner fails to generate offense in the attacking third. The Holy Cross midfield won the 1st half and had a great opportunity to score in a breakaway, but the shot goes wide left and the half ends 0-0

Conner showed some more urgency in the second half and won more of the midfield, but again could not connect passes and failed to generate any real threats of a scoring opportunity. 
 

With 30 seconds left, a Conner player is fouled at the 40 yard line in the middle of the field. Daniel Campbell takes the kick and sends it into the box, the Holy Cross keeper misplays the ball, it drops in front of him and a Conner attacker sends the ball to the back of the net. Conner players and fans going crazy….but wait. The center ref calls a handball on Conner, no goal and the Cougars get the draw, but felt more like a loss. 
 

Conner plays Ryle on Thursday, could be a long night if the Cougars can’t find a way to get the ball in the back of the net. 

While this is a terrific result for Holy Cross, this certainly would have been one the Cougars would have thought was a good chance at a win to build some momentum before Thursday's game with Ryle.  

Indians and Tigers of Beechwood both pick up solid results last night, confidence has to be high for the two teams that will play in the 35th Semis for a chance at a 9th Region ticket.
