Thunderbirds Home Opener Recap

Algoma soccer faces two different teams to kick off the season

Box Score 1 | Box Score 2 | Box Score 3 | Box Score 4 The Home Opener has come and gone, and we saw some stellar performances from our Thunderbirds as they faced two different teams over the weekend. 

On Friday, September 2nd, we faced the Brock Badgers. Makayla Townes had seven saves in net. Our first goal of the official season was scored by Katie Nippard, and the game ended with a final score of Badgers 5-1 Thunderbirds. 

The men's team played soon after. Joshua Bondac had five saves throughout the game. The final score was Badgers 4-0 Thunderbirds. 

Despite the loss for the teams, they were eager to return to the field on Sunday, September 4th to play against the Guelph Gryphons.

Guelph proved to have strong teams. 

The final score for the WSOC game was Guelph 7-0 Algoma. Despite the loss, Megan Chandler managed to save a total of 16 shots. Faith Holmes displayed great defensive skills. 

The final score for the MSOC game was Guelph 8-0 Algoma. Alexander Burt remained loud on the field, saving a total of 9 shots. He brought great energy to his team throughout the game. 

Next action for the Thunderbirds will be on September 17th & 18th at Western University. As they face the Mustangs, we invite everyone to catch the games via OUA TV at https://oua.yaretv.com/Algoma and to follow along on our socials for updates!
