Recently the Madison boy's soccer team took on their rival the Perry Pirates for the border cup. It was a fierce battle between the two sides with both teams conceding at least one goal throughout the game. However the Bluestreaks were able to slot one more into the net for a 2-1 win, and they were able to keep the border cup at home once again. This was not just another regular game for most of the players. For many it was their last time ever playing against Perry, and it was the last regular season game of the year, as there are twelve seniors that are on the varsity roster. Once the final whistle blew you could see the pure enjoyment and happiness in the face of every player on and off the pitch. With this win the lads took their regular season record to 9-5-2, and placed themselves as tenth in the crop. During the regular season they slotted home 45 goals, with the leading goal scorer being senior Fabian Ruiz-Diaz. Now with their regular season being over the Bluestreaks soccer team looks ahead to playoffs where they will host the Lakeside Dragons for the first round of the tournament. The team has no made it past the first round of playoffs in many years and look forward to finally advancing far into the table. If the boys manage to pull off a win against Lakeside they will play University on Saturday.
