Ann Arbor River Rats Sweep Dexter with 4-0 Win
The Dreadnaught varsity soccer team lost to Ann Arbor Huron High School on Tuesday.
By Alex Hardie
Coming off of a big weekend that saw Dexter against three Division 1 opponents, the Dreadnaughts could not carry the momentum against Ann Arbor on Tuesday.
The River Rats jumped all over Dexter in the first half with an attacking one and two touch passing that proved difficult for Dexter. Only eight minutes into the game, the River Rats took a free kick from about 30 yards out that was sent over the wall for their first goal. Exactly three minutes later, Huron scored their second point against Dexter followed by a penalty-kick against Dexter’s defender.
