The Start of the Chiefs Classic

Game 11 (5-5-1)
3 October vs. Glendale in Chiefs' Classic 


EKL Standings


Well, we began the Chiefs' Classic against a highly respected Glendale team who came in 9-2-1. And they left, 10-2-1.

We outplayed them, honestly. They, however, countered our throw-in, and we just could not put the ball in the net, despite our 16 shots, our 8 corner kicks, and our numerous free kicks and long throw-ins.

With both Kitts and Rutter out from injury and sickness, we needed a couple of extended guys to play as if they are not extended guys. And they did.

Michael Doerfler took over for Greyson at Centerback, and he fit nicely with Laws, as he played off him. And Ollie who filled in for Kitts ended up being the Man of the Match—it was those performances that allowed us to play at our best, for they replaced two of our best defenders.

We are back in action tomorrow against a Nixa team (1900 in their high school) that lost 2-1 to Lee's Summit West in overtime. So, we will have to be at our best, and find the back of the net a couple of times.

STATS:

First Half:

Saints: Shots: 7 (1)  Corners: (Siebert, Ragan, Laws)

Glendale: Shots: 5 (4) Corners: 0

23:00 Weston (Tittsworth finds the pass off the counterattack)

Second Half:

Saints: Shots: 9 (4) Corners: 5 (Siebert 2, Fuentes, Lynch and Omar)

Glendale: Shots: 3 (1) Corners: 0

Game 2: (0-2-0) 5 September vs. Rockhurst at home (0-1) 2024 Stats EKL Standings How enjoyable has our Rockhurst Rivalary been—just extraordinary. Yes, this match used to draw 5,000 fans, complete with football-team cookouts and coaches coming in from all over the country, but Coach Pribyl's TOP DAWG tourney is no more. Oh, and tonight, the Chiefs play on NBC to open the NFL season at 7:20. So, a bit less than 5,000. But Halo did broadcast the match, so some people around the country got to watch both. It was a match that almost did not start, with lightning in the area. But the skies parted, the rain and lighting left, and it was a great night for soccer. And really, we had quite a match with very few opportunities to score for either team. We both had a few. The match was nearly 60 minutes in and still scoreless when our left wing picked up his second yellow card. So from that point on, we had to play the Rock with only 10 guys. We thought our guys played so well and so hard thos
