The Varsity boys soccer team fell 2-0 vs. a very competitive Blue Mountain side and as a result suffered their first loss of the season. The first forty minutes of play was dominated by BMU as they outstepped the Raptors and won most of the 50-50 balls that were up for grabs. After the intermission the boys showed a bit more spunk but were unable to finish on a number of good offfensive opportunities. While disappointed by the outcome, the boys were very much aware that they were outplayed and look forward to the rematch later in the season.
The boys play again Saturday at 10:00am vs. Cabot.

Rivendell's Philosophy on Athletics
Competitive athletics play an integral part in the educational programs at Rivendell. The challenges associated with competition create learning experiences for all athletes. A player’s drive, determination, confidence, mental toughness, and emotional control are tested daily. The educational value of athletics lies in how the athlete copes with these challenges. High quality leadership is a must. Coaches stress commitment, dedication, and hard work and work closely with the players as they face these obstacles. With good leadership, athletes will learn self-discipline and self-motivation, and develop good sportsmanship in both winning and losing. It is our hope that athletes are taught a formula that can be applied to real-life situations: They learn to plan, prepare, perform, evaluate, and try again. Our teams play to win, but winning is only a by-product of hard work, good teamwork, respect, and good sportsmanship, which are our focus.
