AMENIA — Webutuck’s Friday night home game against Rhinebeck ended with a 1-0 loss with a late-second half goal from Rhinebeck.
The Wildcats put up a solid defense for most of the game, with goalkeeper James Singleton back on the field this season showing his strength in the net.
Webutuck suffered an apparently significant loss midway through the second half when both team captains suffered severe muscle cramps, forcing them to the bench to recover and replenish electrolytes for the rest of the game.
The remaining players fought on without them, but a well-timed fake out pulled Singleton just far enough out of the goal to sneak the ball into the back of the net.
Webutuck couldn’t manage to tie the game, but defenders held Rhinebeck at bay to maintain a 1-0 loss.
