Boys: Picayune 8 Bay High 1 (contributed by Bill Hillery)
The Picayune Maroon Tide took on the normally competitive Bay High Tigers in
Picayune. However,
this time the Tide totally dominated the game with an 8-1 score. Scott Hillery led all scorers with
4 goals earned what is referred to
as the "Golden Sombrero".
Britton Fortenberry, Juan Barajas, Lorenzo Woods and Joe Burrage each had one.
Britton Fortenberry
had 5 assists from his center midfield position. The front line of Hillery and Woods proved to be way
too much speed for the Tiger defense.
Kaleb Raybon had another stellar game in goal.
The Tide may have paid a big price in the game though as central defender Keith
Burgess got into an
altercation with a Tiger forward and was ejected from the game. At this time it is unknown how many
games Burgess will be suspended. Since the next 2 games are critical district games, this suspension
could hurt the Tide tremendously.
