The Iowa Mennonite School boys soccer team has reached a tough part of their schedule, that sees them play three straight matches on the road.
They opened that stretch a week ago with a 3-1 win at Holy Trinity and now look to make it two straight when they travel to Mediapolis Tuesday. IMS was a 3-1 winner at Holy Trinity with Jacob Boller, Louis Etienne and Brian Maren all scoring goals in the win. For the season, IMS is led by Etienne with seven goals. Toby Chen leads IMS with four assists. In goal, Blake Bontrager leads the way with 22 saves and an 88% save percentage.
Mediapolis enters the match with an overall record of 3-4. Last time out, they knocked off Keokuk on the road 3-2. On the year, the Bulldogs are led by Alejandro Garcia and Drew Zurmuehlen with four goals each. Nathan Hine has the team lead with six assists. Randall Hine has 59 saves in goal this season. These two teams met twice a season ago with IMS winning both matches by a combined 11-0 score. Action begins tonight at 5p.m. at Mediapolis High School.
