Carlisle 1 Chariton 0
Chariton lost to Carlisle, 1-0, at Cownie Park in Des Moines April 26. Cownie Park is the same complex that hosts the Boys State Soccer Tournament. This game was a tight battle between two evenly matched teams. Chariton's goalie was knocked out of the game by one of the Carlisle players just 20 minutes into the game. The Wildcats scored against the wind in the 20th minute for the game's only goal. "We had several scoring opportunities but were unable to put any into the net. Jon Hendricks went in to replace Timofey Timofeyev at goalie and did an excellent job in the net. We played extremely hard but were unable to get the win. Since the game was played at Cownie Park, it was a unique opportunity for the boys," Coach Pierschbacher said.
