Hornets Lose to Lakers

The Hornets battled the Camdenton Lakers tonight. The final score was 4-0, with the Lakers scoring one goal in the first half and three in the second. Coach Frierson thought that his players continued to show improvement. He is especially proud of the defense. Frierson says

“our defensive players have obviously become comfortable in their positions and they communicate well with each other back there.”

Camdenton’s first two goals came off of corner kicks. Coach Frierson admits that because of size the Hornets are vulnerable in the air. Hillcrest keeper, Taylor Hill, continues to make great improvements by becoming more aggressive as well as more vocal. The team faces Bolivar at home this Thursday at 4:00

Hornets Defeat Marshfield

The Marshfield Jays hosted the Hillcrest Hornets Thursday evening. In a game that was entertaining and very active, the Hornets earned their first win on the season while spoiling the Jay’s home opener. The teams were evenly matched and as a seasoned observer shared with me (he’s seen this game each of the past four years) he was very impressed with the level of play and continuing improvement both teams have made. The key difference was the final result, 3-0 with the game winning goal coming from freshman Erestu Sombolinggi in the first half. Freshman Ben Ballhorn and senior captain Brady Collier scored as well.

Hornets Open Season

The Hornets battled valiantly but opened the season with a loss on the road. New Head Coach Ross Frierson has assembled a team with a good attitude in the face of difficult odds as soccer on the north side is still new by comparison to other areas of the city. There are several boys I am familiar with based upon their participation in club ball and they provide the core of the team.
