Carroll looked sharp in their season opener, dominating the ball on their side of the field. The offense kept flooding the zone, putting pressure on the Trojans defense. Landon Petersen helped the Tigers take charge early, scoring a hat trick in the 1st half with three goals as the Tigers built a 4-0 lead at half. Carroll didn’t allow Atlantic many opportunities on their offensive end in the 1st half.

They added a pair of goals with just over 10:00 remaining to push the lead to 8-0. The Tigers nearly scored several more times but the Atlantic defense made a couple nice plays.
