Backing up the talk that they will play anyone anywhere, Nebraska semi-pro club Bugeaters FC traveled 1,300 miles to play greater Philadelphia teams Atlantic City FC and Bearfight FC last weekend.
After making history as the opponent in Atlantic City FC’s first ever game at Stockton University in a 5-3 loss on Saturday, the Bugeaters beat Bearfight FC 4-1 Sunday afternoon at Kirkwood Soccer Complex in New Castle, Del.
“It’s exciting, it’s been great, everyone has been really nice,” said Bugeaters captain Keegan Boyd, who joined up with the team after finishing classes at Creighton last week.
