It would be Champlain Valley Athletic Conference Boy's Soccer action from the Beekmantown Sports Complex. It would be a battle between a pair of Class A teams as the Beekmantown Eagles would host the #6 Peru Nighthawks the early season game might decide who is the #1 seed in the playoffs at the end of the season as they battle to get in the state playoffs. The Nighthawks would get the game's opening goal in the 12th minute from Jordan Osborne who chested it in past the Beekmantown netminder. As they would go through the rest of the half the Nighthawks would have their chance to extend the lead but the Eagles goaltender would make some great saves to keep his team in the game and that's where the second half would end. When the teams returned for the second half the Nighthawks would continue to control the game but the Eagles would have their chances to get the equalizer. The best chance would be right near the end of the game when they would send their keeper up to add an extra man as they try to get the tying goal he would get the header but it would go over the top as the Nighthawks would get the 1-0 win. In the winning effort, the Nighthawks would stay perfect on the season at 8-0 as they head into their next game against the Northeastern Clinton Cougars. As for the Eagles, they would fall to 1-7 but will try and build on their effort in their next game. Gallery
