Monroe Boys' varsity soccer pushed Saline to the limit before finally falling 0-3 on Tuesday night at Custer Stadium. Depleted through several injures and illness the Trojan's squad nonetheess matched Saline for an hour before their all time leading scorer Christian Rossi broke the deadlock with a clever back heel goal. The back line of Matt Grenn, Lucas Rzepa Trevor Mann and Logan Janes had defended extremely well up to that point and Trevor Mann had done an excellent job of marking Rossi. In midfield Austin Dunn and Daniel Presa had another fine game and Dunn was denied a goal in the first half by a finger tip save at fulll stretch by Hornet's keepr.Riley Behrman. Talen Swinkey's presence lifted the team on his welcome return from injury and Geovanny Gallegos worked tirelsssly up front.The depth and quality of Saline's 23 man roster showed in the final minutes as Monroe conceded two late goals to give the vistors a deserved but hard earned victory.

Monroe 1-1 on the season.
