The Cape soccer squad hosted a 14-team play day Aug. 27 in Lewes. Teams taking part were Appoquinimink, Brandywine, Caesar Rodney, Wilmington Charter, Indian River, Parkside of Maryland, Salesianum, St. Georges Tech, Stephen Decatur of Maryland, Sussex Central, Tower Hill and Mount St. Joseph of Maryland.

The Vikings capped the day of scrimmages with a 2-2 tie with Tower Hill.

“We played decent and tied,” said Cape coach Patrick Kilby. “The result does not bode well for the goals that we have set for the season. We have set goals to improve our goal differential and our record in one-goal games. So far this preseason, we are 1-1-1 in one-goal games. We are continuing to get better every day. We are super excited to start of the season. We are in Boston Sunday, Monday and Tuesday for a college visit, and we will be playing two matches against East Boston High School and Boston Latin School.”

The Vikings start the 2022 campaign Thursday, Sept. 8, at Delmar.
