Danvers 0 - Marblehead 4
The Falcons traveled thru the craziness of Salem in October for a matchup with the Magicians. The two
teams had plated to an 2-2 earlier in the season with the Falcons giving up a late one resulting in the
draw.
​
The two teams came out even in the first half with Danvers having several opportunities to put the game
in their favor however they were unable to convert. With the momentum in the balance the Magicians
would get the first goal of the game in the 27th minute with the Falcons unable to clear the ball out in
front of their goal. The teams would go to half with the home team holding a 1-0 advantage which would have
been and should have been 2-0 if not by an incredible diving stop by Falcon’s keeper Zach Cotter.
​
As has been the Falcons Achilles heel all season the second half would see the opponent take control.
The Magicians would go on to add 3 additional markers in the half capitalizing on a tiring Falcons defense
resulting in loose balks inside the Falcons six-yard box. The final would be 4-0 for the home side.
