The JV Gold team was up against Center Grove this evening for their annual Pink-out game to support the Megan S. Ott foundation. This foundation provides local direct support to families as they battle with breast cancer in their lives, please consider researching the foundation and contributing to its cause.

The Millers started off quickly with two goals from Freshman Carson Mertens, both assisted by Keller Willis in both the 4′ and 15′ of the match. Later on, Mertens earned a first half hat trick assisted by Jacob Lysiuk. However, Center Grove did not back down, and responded with two goals of their own to end the half 3-2 in the Millers favor.

The second half the Millers continued putting on offensive pressure. Freshman Keller Willis scored unassisted in both the 40′ and 48′ to give the team a 4-2 advantage. Later on, Jacob Lysiuk sealed the game with a goal of his own, assisted by Deklan Jenski who was controlling the midfield throughout the game.

Defenders Hudson Earley and Jake Hall both controlled the defensive side of the field to keep the pressure on Center Grove for the rest of the match.

The Millers are now 6-1 as they take on a very tough match against Westfield tomorrow, 9/8, at 6:15pm.
