Yesterday the men’s varsity side from Bishop Lynch traveled to play Jesuit on the Rangers’ home pitch. Regulation time ended with the match tied 2-2, after the Rangers got the equalizer on a penalty kick. Two scoreless overtime periods ensued, followed by a shootout. A good portion of the Jesuit student body was in the stands, blowing vuvuzelas. The horns fell silent, though, when the Friars of Bishop Lynch prevailed. This was the first time in school history that Bishop Lynch beat Jesuit. (Disclosure: my son plays junior varsity for the Friars, and this post was written pretty much just to gig a friend of mine whose name is all over the Jesuit soccer record books.)
