Jude Spallinger paces BHS with 3 goals

By Cort Reynolds
PETTISVILLE - The perennial power Bluffton boys soccer team shut out Pettisville in its opener on the road Saturday, 5-0.

Jude Spallinger netted three goals to pace the Pirate offense.

The Bluffton goals were netted by: Tayton Klemen (5th minute); Spallinger (10'), (38'), and (58'); and Brandon Good (25').

Blufton fired 30 shots, 19 of which were on goal. Pettisville made 14 saves, and did not manage a single shot against the stingy Pirate defense.

 

Bluffton's newest pedestrian pathway extension is underway. The pathway will connect the paths at Augsburger and Bentley Road extending north to Riley Creek Court. There is currently no sidewalk on that section of Bentley. The pathway board's next project, slated for 2020, will extend the pathway from Riley Creek Court to Riley Street. Don Snyder Excavating is the general contractor.
