North Johnston rallies past Rosewood

KENLY -- Rosewood led third-ranked North Johnston for 81 minutes before the Panthers posted two late goals to claim a 2-1 win at home on Wednesday in a Class 1-A Carolina/Super Six Conference clash.

The Eagles (5-6-1, 2-1 Carolina/SS) went up 1-0 in the 27th minute of the first half when Kyle Bunn knocked in a corner kick from Matt Howell. The 1-0 lead stood until halftime.

Jake Lomonaco eventually got the Panthers (9-2-2, 2-0-1 Carolina/SS) on the board with nine minutes left on an assist from Raul Farfan. The goal was Lomonaco's 17th of the year.

Farfan posted the game winner four minutes later on a pass from Nelson Reyes.

"The first 70 minutes, Rosewood outplayed us. At halftime I was concerned," North Johnston coach Brent Walston said. "Once we tied the game, it got us excited and we slowly began to pick things."

Jay Pittman and Josh Cooper combined for three saves for North Johnston, who travels to Ayden Grifton on Monday.
