Crocker Lions

Camdenton Lakers – 2
Helias Catholic Crusaders – 1
at Camdenton HS, the Laker’s goals were scored by Robbie Hoffman, a penalty kick, and by Kyler Moore (Sal Laferla assist). Helias scored their only goal with 5:00+ left. Rumor has it that Rayder Bennett is once again on the pitch and his recovery is complete.

McCutcheon (25) congratulates Strunk on his goal

The second half was a bit more open and as the Pirates were able to move the ball outside to the wings more effectively. The Chiefs clamped down however, while scoring a pair. Elliott Williams got his on a run into the box and McCutcheon got a 2nd on the evening as he slid one through a crowd. UPDATE – I see Nate Lavoy scored while I was moving from the pitch to my car

Camdenton Lakers – 7
Sedalia Smith-Cotton – 1
In a game that indicates how strong the competitive juices flow between these teams, despite the move out of District 9 by Camdenton, these Central Missouri squads went at each other hard from the opening kick off. After seeing the Lakers a 2nd time now this season, the key element I see is a willingness across the entire team to go to the ball and challenge every play. It’s like watching a high-pressure EPL game as they force their opponents to play quickly or defend their attack.

The Laker’s got the lead in the 18th minute from a corner kick when #2 Drew Whitney, redirected the ball that fell to him and just over the outreached arms of the goalkeeper. Smith-Cotton thought they had tied the game in the 32nd minute only to see the goal called back for offsides.

I headed home at halftime, having stopped on the way home from a business meeting in Columbia. The second half featured a hat trick by Rayder Bennett, a brace from Jeff Moffitt and one by Nate Buttrum.

Sedalia graduated 10 starters on last years District Championship team but have a pair of talented midfielders leading the way. We’ll check back in on District 9 later this season.

Cassville Wildcats – 3
Greenwood Blue Jays – 1
The Wildcats played their second straight game against a Class 1 District 6 opponent and earned the win again. Greenwood had the lead at the half on a pretty goal from Cory McCoy. He headed a nice cross from Chris Aiken into the upper 90 on the left side. In the second half, Uziel Franco scored after a nice turn to get free of the defense. He came in all alone and the goalie was hung out to dry. The Wildcats Jesus Rivera scored the next two goals off feeds from Franco. The eventual game winner redirected into the lower right corner from directly in front of the keeper. The second, about five minutes later, a chip over the charging goalie. Very few scoring chances for Greenwood the entire game. Well played, clean game. Very entertaining. Game report provided by OzarkSports.net
