Thursday, October 27 October 27: OFA Modified 3, Maine-Endwell 1 The Indians defeated Maine Endwell 3-1 this afternoon, battling their foes and the elements as well.

Not to be outdone Andy Matt put a goal of his own in to set the score at 2-1 Indians. Decker Ayers gathered up a loose ball in the box and scored the final goal of the season at the end of the third quarter. At that point, the coaches and referees agreed conditions had become too cold and slippery to continue the contest. Especially in light of the late start to the season due to the flooding and the inexperience and youth of the OFA Modified squad, the coaches and the entire OFA soccer community are extremely proud of all that the boys accomplished against a very challenging schedule of opponents this season.

Paul Matt soon followed with a tally of his own to send the Indians into the break with a 2-1 lead. The JC striker again tallied to even the score. Late in the third quarter Corey Brown powered a loose ball up field where Paul Matt possessed it and broke away for what proved to be the game winner. The fourth quarter saw Johnson City continue to try to feed their striker, but great efforts in marking by Gabriel Rodriquez and Paul Matt denied him the ball.
