2008 District pairings

Monday, September 29th - Carman Ainsworth 2-1 over Grand Blanc 

On Monday, Grand Blanc suffered it's first lose in the Big Nine when the Carman Ainsworth Cavaliers beat them 2-1. 

To start the game, the Bobcats played with great intensity.  This intensity would be rewarded early in the game when the Cavaliers were forced to foul Tim Walker in the goal box setting up a penalty kick.  Matt Filos took the resulting PK and quickly put Grand Blanc up 1-0.  However, with two minutes left in the first half, the Cavaliers pounced on a rebound from a CA corner kick and scored the equalizer to end the first 40 minutes 1-1. 

The only scoring in the second half came from the Cavaliers when David Gibson placed a shot far-post on Kyle Huber to halt Grand Blanc's Big Nine win streak at 20 games.  The last time the GB varsity boys team had lost a Big Nine contest was on September 21, 2006 against Owosso. 

Kyle Huber was in net the entire match for Grand Blanc. 

Thursday, September 25th - Grand Blanc 6-0 over Davison 

Grand Blanc made it 5-0 in the Big Nine on Thursday by defeating the Davison Cardinals 6-0.

Kyle Huber and Corey Cunningham shared the shutout for the Bobcats.

Saturday, September 20th - Rochester-Stoney Creek 2-1 over Grand Blanc 

On Saturday, Grand Blanc suffered it's first lose of the year when they traveled outside of the Big Nine to take on a very good Stoney Creek Cougar team. 

Both teams played to a scoreless tie the first half, however Grand Blanc struck first after the break when freshman Zach Carroll (McKeoun) raced the Cougar keeper to a loose ball and slid it past him to put the Bobcats up 1-0. 

Stoney Creek quickly came back to even up the contest 1-1.  The score stayed this way until the Cougars were awarded a free kick just outside of the Bobcat 18 yard box with 25 seconds remaining in the contest.  Stoney Creek took advantage of the opportunity and handed Grand Blanc their first lose of the year 2-1. 

Kyle Huber was in net for Grand Blanc. 

Thursday, September 18th - Grand Blanc 2-0 over Flint Powers 

Grand Blanc made it 4-0 in the Big Nine on Thursday by defeating the Flint Powers Chargers 2-0. 

With less than one minute into the match, Grand Blanc made it 1-0 when Alex Kruse headed a throw-in from his brother, Chris, past the Chargers keeper.  However, this would be one of very few opportunities either team would have in the first half and the half would end 1-0.

 In the second half, Grand Blanc would finally find the net again when Zach Carroll fired a shot far post on the Charger keeper.  Billy James had put a free kick into the box and Carroll made sure it did not leave the box.           

Kyle Huber got the shutout for the Bobcats.

Kyle Huber got the win in net for Grand Blanc. 

Saturday, September 13th - Grand Blanc 1-0 over Traverse City West

In the second half, Alex Kruse jumped on a rebounded Vince McKeoun shot and slammed it into the empty net to make it 3-0.  Rounding out the scoring for GB was Jacob Merrit, who deposited a great free kick by Billy James past the Saginaw keeper.

 In the second half, if not for the heroics of keeper Corey Cunningham, Grand Blanc could have easily seen this game go down as a defeat.
