MCDERMOTT — Holding a sizeable lead in terms of possession and shot opportunities is certainly a big deal in the sport of soccer. After all, executing in those areas only increases one's chances for multiple conversions on the scoreboard.
But at the end of the day, the only score that matters is the final score that's displayed on the home and away side.
Not a stranger to competitive contests when they've met up themselves, the Northwest Mohawks' and Valley Indians' boys soccer programs again battled in a competitive match Wednesday evening.
For much of the game, Valley held serve in terms of shots and time of possession, claiming a 28-2 shot advantage in the 80-minute affair with 17 shots on goal.
But a gritty Northwest defensive effort, led by 16 saves from junior goalkeeper Chase Kingrey and an early second minute goal from standout forward Luke Lewis, allowed the Mohawks to defend home and post a 1-1 tie Wednesday evening at Roy Rogers Field in McDermott.
