Walkersville High School vs Liberty High School

The Walkersvile High School Boys Soccer Team were battling in a back and forth first half. Both teams looked to get the ball forward and attack into the final third. Despite defending well for much of the half, the Lions found themselves down 1-0 at halftime. Walkersville came out with energy in the second half, but an unfortunate set piece found the back of the net for Liberty, to take a 2-0 lead. The Lions kept pressing and found a spark late in the game. The momentum seemed to turn when Tyler Cincotta got on to a ball just outside the box and was taken down, earning a dangerous free kick for Walkersville. Nathan Ramsay stepped up to the ball and placed a beautifully struck ball past the keeper to put the Lions on the board. After the goal, Walkersville continued to press and created several chances going forward in the final 15 minutes of play. Cash Moots and Eli Glickman both got their heads onto dangerous crosses but were unable to find the back of the net. Despite the late surge, the Lions couldn’t find the game tying goal and ultimately fell 2-1 to Liberty. Kollin Purgason was strong in net for the Lions, finishing with 9 saves in the game. Walkersville will be back in action Thursday night when they take on Linganore High School.
