Inside the White Rocks

FOOTBALL (3-3)

SOCCER (11-2-2)

Landon 7 Bishop Ireton 0

Landon 5 (Kris Fletcher 4) @ Episcopal 1

We’ve seen many moments of great skill from Kris thus far this season.  Today he was consistently at the highest level I’ve seen at Landon in twenty-three years.  Period.  His second goal was simply outrageous; it was like he dribbled into a phone booth packed with four defenders, skinned each one of them, then danced around the GK, left him sprawled on the ground, and literally walked into the goal with the ball

One time, in my third year, I coached against a Heights team that featured Freddy Adu, a name you might remember.  He did a bunch of otherworldly things that day, but he never scored in the run of play.  He finished a PK and bent a direct kick over the wall and under the bar from distance.  Very impressive. 

Fletch scored four goals by carrying the ball more than fifty yards and weaving through 6 – 8 players.  I cannot wait for the film to get posted on Hudl.  And, Kris now holds the all-time records for goals and points in a season on 21 and 50, respectively.  

Our 2s, again, did well in the second half.  Zach Anderson scored on a simple finish after Conrad Brady made several defenders miss and slipped a tidy ball into Zach’s feet.  Ethan Pendleton impressed early when the game was still competitive.  

St. Albans won beat Prep on a controversial penalty kick in injury time at the tail end of the second overtime period.  So, we’re still in first place by two points.  We visit Bullis on Tuesday and if we hold serve, and STA does likewise v Episcopal, then next Friday v STA on Prindle Field will be for the whole enchilada.

“Our PK did a great job again tonight,” Coach  Handy said, noting that Liberty was shorthanded even when it didn’t have men in the penalty box. He credited Norwinski for helping to anchor and stabilize the defense. “Like a lot of other guys, he was banged up and was able to gut through the game tonight,”
