On a windy but warm and sunny morning, the Nike Boys took to the pitch for their last VCCL home game of the Fall 2009 season. The opponent was the Williamsburg Legacy. The wind was a definite factor today for the team going into the teeth of it. The Legacy had the wind in the first half and made the most of it by sending two shots on goal that bounced off of the crossbar. The Nike Boys tried to mount an attack but the wind battering the ball in the air. The first half ended 0-0.
The Nike Boys had the wind in the second half but it was not a factor in the game winning goal. In the 48th minute, the ball fell to Brett who settled it and sent a strike low and hard into the left corner of the Legacy goal.
Nike Boys 1 - Legacy 0. Some good defense by the Nike Boys the rest of the way sealed an important win. One game to go in the VCCL 2009 Fall season. A make up game against Roanoke.
