Reserves Tie Souhegan 1-1

After losing 5-0 to Souhegan earlier in the season, The Marauder Reserves stepped up on Saturday and battled the Sabers to a 1-1 tie.  After a long delay and warming up in the rain, Souhegan arrived 30 minutes after kick off time. The rain stopped just in time for a 2:15 kick off.

Hanover started with great pressure in the first half with shots on goal from Benny Gantrish, Francesco Navarro, and Tenzin Tashi. The Souhegan keeper was able to close out on the Marauder shooters and ran down many of the Hanover through balls.  The Marauder defense was able keep Souhegan off the score sheet in the first half,  and the teams went into the break with the score knotted at 0-0.

Souhegan netted the first goal of the match on a header off a cross to the six yard box five minutes into the half. Hanover responded eight minutes later on the foot of Tenzin Tashi. After Francesco Navarro played a long ball wide to the left, Joseph Glock passed it to the open Tenzin,  waiting at the penalty dot. Tenzin beat the goalie to the left as he lost his footing. The game would finish many scoring chances from both sides. Gabe Loud nearly finished on a free kick from Benny Gantrish. Arturo Johnson saved a shot on a free kick from just outside the 18 yard line to keep the game tied with six minutes left. The game would end in a 1-1 tie. 


Hanover hosts Kimball Union Academy on Wednesday at 3:30, and will then close the season with the rescheduled home game against Newport on Thursday at 3:30.
