Healthy Cougars boot Saints, 3-0

Kennedy Coach Steve Robertson sat down to list his lineup for Friday's boys soccer match against Xavier and it struck him.

"Today was the first time all season we've had our entire varsity healthy and/or here to play," he said after the match. "I just noticed it today when I was printing out the roster that I didn't gray out anybody who was missing or injured and not able to play."

Healthy and happy, the Coguars kicked Xavier, 3-0, in a Mississippi Valley Conference match at Xavier's Heco Field.

This was another of those Metro games that featured two ranked teams - Kennedy is No.6 in Class 3A and Xavier is No.4 in Class 2A despite a losing record - but this match was dominated by the visiting Cougars after a scoreless first half.
