Champs crush Rockets in home opener

There was plenty of offense to go around in Cascade’s victory against Forrest on Thursday afternoon.
Seven different Champion scored in the 9-3 blowout.
Cascade got the scoring started four minutes into the match when senior Drake Hodge was taken down in the box and a penalty kick was awarded to the Champs.
Freedom Williams took the following PK and promptly put the Champs up 1-0.
After a lull in action for the following 14 minutes, Hodge again facilitated a Cascade score after he took a corner kick, weaved through the Rocket defense and connected off the crossbar to put Cascade up 2-0.
The Rockets answered barely three minutes later with the first Forrest goal of the night, only to see Hodge get taken down again in the box, once again setting up a Cascade penalty kick.
This time, it was Isaac Chappa who connected to put Cascade up by two goals.
The Champs went on to score two more times in the half and led 5-2 at the intermission before closing the game on a 4-1 run in the second half.
Hodge, along with Ivan Draine, each netted a pair of scores, while Sam Bossam, Pablo Sola, Carlos Velasquez, Chappa and Williams each scored one in the win.
The Champs will be back in action on Tuesday, hosting Shelbyville at 6 p.m.

Forrest 2 1 — 3
Cascade 5 4 — 9
