The freshman soccer team ran its undefeated string to six in a row yesterday afternoon by shutting out Tufts, 2-0, in a game played on Tufts Field at Medford.
Although they controlled the ball deep in Tufts' territory for the entire-game, the Yardlings were unable to score until shortly after the second half opened, when they tallied twice within a minute and a half.
Tufts had previously tied the same Andover team which held the locals to a scoreless deadlock, and until the second half it looked as if the Tufts defense might turn the same trick.
However, as they had against Milton, Governor Dummer, Nichols, and Medford, the freshmen proved themselves to be a second half club. In 2:45 of the third period. Berk Johnson dropped a high arching corner kick in the goal mouth and Captain Win Knowlton rushed in from his wing position to boot the ball into the nets.
Johnson again proved to be the key to the Crimson attack when he picked up a loose ball 60 seconds later and back passed to halfback Jim Callahan. Callahan then lifted the ball over both Tufts fullbacks to Dana Getchell; Getchell passed to Bengt Sandberg at center forward, who promptly tallied his fourth goal of the season.
