Game Summary
Wow...what a game! Very intense and well played in both directions with a moderate wind throughout. Legacy nearly scored 10 seconds into the game when Blake deflected a clearance that almost roofed the keeper. A few minutes later Boulder almost drew a PK...and so went most of the game. Legacy continued to show its diversity in attack with multiple players, areas, and methods of being dangerous. Ultimately, it was Joey who got the game winner midway through the half on a great 1-2 combination from the left flank with a brilliant finish after combining with Blake. Ten minutes later Blake got one himself with a brilliant spin and shoot far post from the top of the box.
