Unfortunately the tough defeat last Tuesday (September 15th) against the current Cincinnati Hills League leader, Mariemont, was not just one of Steve Thomas' nightmares. Mariemont took an early lead from a ricochet off the post and then off a Wyoming player. The Cowboys struck back minutes later but would never take the lead, fighting tireless all 80 minutes. The game ended 3-2 in favor of Mariemont.
The Cowboys bounced back on Thursday (September 17th) with a close win against Madeira. The game opened up with a goal from Andrew Derge, his 7th of the season putting Wyoming in a good spot early on. Their lead vanished in the 2nd half when Madeira midfielder Graham Long finished a great play for the Mustangs. Tristan Kovach answered back with a flick of the head netting a well worked play from Jay Klein and Andrew Derge. The Cowboys dominated possession to hold the game to its 2-1 scoreline.
Saturday the 19th went as expected with Wyoming pulling away and routing Talawanda 5 to 1. Although it took 20 minutes for the first goal, Jay Klein’s put away unleashed a flurry of Wyoming goals from the golden forehead of Andrew Derge (2 goals), Tristan Kovach and one more from Jay to give the Cowboys the wide margin of 5 goals. Talawanda did little to concern the effective Wyoming team, however Craig Bond, son of James, caught the Cowboy defense on its heels and put one in for the Talawandians.
Great week of soccer.
Thanks to Alex and Jay for the update.
