MARSHFIELD – Trevor Meyer scored twice in an 11-minute span to lead the Marshfield boys soccer team to a come-from-behind 2-1 win over first-place D.C. Everest in a Wisconsin Valley Conference match Thursday night at Marshfield High School.

D.C. Everest scored early as Evan Peak had a goal in the 12th minute before Marshfield responded.

Meyer scored in the 34th minute to knot the game up at 1-1 heading into halftime. Five minutes into the second half, Meyer scored again and the Tigers were able to hold on the rest of the way to send D.C. Everest to its first conference loss.

“We made personel adjustments to a more defensive posture and really had our hands full,” Marshfield coach Jeff Molter said. “The Evergreens came at us with everything and pressed hard for the equalizer, but our defense with Noah Daniels, Joey Ketterer, JJ Steinbach, Afton Hamil and Landon Lee really stepped up and got the job done.”

Marshfield is now 4-8-1 overall and 2-3-1 in the WVC, while D.C. Everest drops to 9-5 and 5-1 in the conference, but remains one game ahead of Wisconsin Rapids for first place. Click here to view the Wisconsin Valley Conference boys soccer standings
