BOYS SOCCER OFF TO HOT START

The East Noble Boys Soccer team is off to one of the best starts in recent memory. The Knights are 6-

2, with one loss coming on the road in a highly competitive conference match with Huntington North, and the other on PK’s at Leo. That not only

leaves the Knights with only 2 defeats, but also still in the thick of the conference race with 4 NE8 matches left to play down the stretch.

The Knights took down rival-DeKalb at home last week to earn a conference win. Senior Forward,

Michael Klein, has been a scoring threat nearly every time he has touched the ball early on this season and has been one of the catalysts to the team’s

success. “The season has gotten off to a great start,” said Klein. “We are looking forward to the rest of the season and what it holds for us.” The Knights will face a historically strong opponent at West Noble on Saturday.

GIRLS SOCCER: defense stays solid

The Lady Knights Soccer team has had an outstanding showing on the defensive side of the ball in 4 of their last 6 games. One of those 3 games

was a 1-0 loss to Blackhawk Christian on a goal scored in the final minute of the game. Another loss was 1-0 to Huntington North and the final one a 0-0

tie with Angola.

We have started to figure out our defense and how to mark people properly,” said Head Coach Brian Rexroad. “Now we need to hone-in on offense and start scoring some goals.”

The Knights still have 4 conference games the

rest of the way and will look to move into the thick of the NE8 race. Two of those 4 games will be at home.

EN will also make trips to Garrett and Columbia City down the stretch before hosting the sectional in early October.
