Emmaus High School Boys Soccer

The Emmaus Boys Soccer Team traveled to Northampton on Friday September 27 and took their first loss of the season by a score of 1-0. The Hornets dominated possession and shots, but couldn’t find the back of the net. Senior Eric Johnson was outstanding for the Hornets, dominating the midfield, generating controlled possession, and distributing the ball effectively to teammates.

With 5 minutes to play in the game, the Kids were able to flick a ball, get behind the defense, and score the game winner. Emmaus’ record is now 13-1-0 for the season, 11-1-0 in conference play.
