On Saturday at Rock Springs Junior High the 2015 Mustangs played their final scrimmage for the fall season against the Salt Lake Community College Bruins. 

Just like their previous two scrimmages the Mustangs possessed the ball well in the first half and made good on their chances.  The first goal for the Mustangs and of the match came off of a free kick from Devin Moore that found Alex Sorenson's head.  The header was deflected by the keeper and the ball bounced off of the crossbar, it fell to Alex Sorenson who easily scored the opening goal.  The second goal of the match was also from the Mustangs after Kyle Goglio was fouled in the penalty area and Taylor Flitton buried the penalty kick to the bottom right.  The score at the half was 2 - 0 in favor of the Mustangs.

After the halftime break and an additional 30 plus minutes lightning delay the second half resumed.  Again the Mustangs struggled to maintain their intensity and allowed the opposition to get back in the match and even take the lead.  SLCC scored goals in the 63rd, 69th and 74th minute.  SLCC lead of 3 - 2 would hold for most of the second half until the Mustangs scored the equalizer in the 90th minute.  The tying goal was scored by Jose Rincon, after Landon Jacobsen assisted.  Since it was a scrimmage no overtime was played and the scrimmage ended in a draw.

Mustang Man of the Match: Tanner Trumble - superb play and energy on the field at all times.
