Boys Soccer Comes from Behind Against DuVal

The ERHS boys soccer team played DuVal today and beat the Tigers 2-1 in come-from-behind fashion. After going down 1-0 the Raiders got goals from Jeff Hopper and Roderick "Insert last name," who just got called up from the junior varsity team.

With Bowie coming to town in just over a week, ERHS looks to build momentum as they face the Northwestern Wildcats in a road contest on Tuesday. Junior midfielder Rene Pizarro knows not to get too excited for Bowie. "[I'm] very pumped, but we have to take it step by step." Pizarro will be questionable for Tuesday's game due to his ankle. He says his focus for the next few days will be to get his ankle healed to be able to play against the Wildcats.

UPDATE: Good news for Roosevelt. Senior Robbie Stewart, who has missed the entire season so far due to his back, might be able to play either this week against Northwestern or the following week against Bowie. Huge plus for the Raiders.
