Continentals Fall to Winter Rovers

(Newark, NJ) The Morristown 1776 fell in their first match of the MCSSA season Friday night, 6-0 to Winter Rovers at West Side Park in Newark.

The Continentals held the game close and held almost even possession in the first half trailing 1-0 at the intermission, but couldn't hold in the second half as the Rovers relentlessly sent in thru balls and converted on many chances.

Peter Luthi was stoned by the keeper numerous times and could just as easily had a hat trick as being held off the scorecard.

The Continentals next game is Wednesday June 4th 6:30pm, at rivals Hanover Lions to be played at Stony Brook Park in Whippany.
