YMS 1, Apple Valley 6

Apple Valley brought the whole package from Hendersonville. A big, fast, experienced team that overpowered the short sided Cougars, who once again, played with only one substitute.

The game started well for Yancey. In the 3rd minute, Martin drove a long shot that went right through the AV keeper's hands, putting the Cougars up 1-0.

Unfortunately AV's size, speed, passing, and depth soon took its toll as the Hendersonville team began to dominate. By half time, the score was 4-1 in AV's favor, as their back line kept the Cougars at bay.

The second half saw the Cougars take a more defensive posture, giving up a LONG goal set up off a corner kick. The last goal came with under a minute to play.

Yancey gets a well deserved rest as playing back to back with minimal subs took the wind out of this team this week. Asheville Middle comes to visit on Monday. They will be looking to avenge to losses to Yancey last season.
