On March 6th, Gilbert Christian Knights beat Arete Prep Chargers 6-2 in the play-in game to determine who would make it to the first round of the boy's soccer playoffs. The Knights came out strong scoring five points in the first half with great play and perseverance by Cavinder (1), Curtner (2), Kuehn (1), and Powell (1). The team played great offensively and goalie, Grant, managed to keep the Chargers from scoring through the first half and most of the second half. Goalie Madison, in for Grant, gave up two goals to the Chargers but along with the team, kept it there and pulled out a strong and secure win!
