Here's a recap and video link from last night:
VIDEO: Ray-Pec Varsity (2) vs Blue Springs (1)
The Varsity Panthers faced their second straight Metro Sports top 10 ranked opponent, Blue Springs, on Wednesday. They were up to the challenge, as Joseph Boyce headed in a beautiful cross from Kellen Niswonger in the 20th minute. Boyce would score again when his 28th minute shot deflected off the Wildcat center back and over the keepers head. The defense played well and limited the Wildcat attack until the 72nd minute, when they scored on a long cross. The team dug in and held on thru the final 8 minutes for a victory that places them in the Park Hill tournament championship vs Blue Springs South.
