The Orange boys soccer team played hard in their final Senior Night match against Northern Vance, Wednesday, October 24. The game ended 0-1 with Northern Vance squeaking by a goal in the last few minutes. Coach Bowman introduced the six graduating players: Jack Twomey-Kozak, Thomas Doyle, Omar Rezk, Kevin Sips, Jorge Lopez, and Edgar Asuncion. Every senior was given a flower and their parents were able to stand with them on the side of the field while Bowman talked about all the ways each player had affected the team. The bleachers and fence around the playing field was decorated with balloons, streamers, and signs for the occasion. Mr. Okun took pictures of all the seniors and their families.
The match soon began after the senior night celebration. The Panthers kept possession of the ball and made many goal attempts. At
the 19 and 26 minute marks within the first half, the men's team was very close to scoring. In the second half, the ball went back and forth between both teams until Northern Vance was able to get a goal with 4 minutes left. Although the seniors will be greatly missed, the men's team did not leave feeling defeated with three wins and three ties this season, they have high hopes for next year.
