The boys got off the bus flat and the warm up looked like they won the game before they came out on the field.  The first ten minutes of the game showed when the defense started chasing the ball and got out of position scrambling and as a result a lofted ball had a scrambling defender out of position and scored on own goal on  just under 9 minutes  in the game and Pines is down 0-1.  It was back and forth the rest of the half. Came out second half and we would possess and get the ball on their end but could not find the back of the net.  Two nice crosses and AJ Muench attacked and put some nice headers out of the reach of the keep but just wide.  Medford was prepared and Pines came out lethargic and stole a victory. Medford 1 and Pines 0
