Junior Lone Star FC’s first foray into the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup started and ended poorly, but in between the visitors gave the Ocean City Nor’easters defense all it could handle in a 3-1 defeat on Wednesday night at Carey Stadium.
Despite only having a few training sessions to prepare for the match, the Nor’easters came out strong in the opening minutes with two goals inside 11 minutes from Fredlin Mompremier off a pass from Ignacio Tellechea and a strong finish from Tyler Collishaw set up by a bullet of a cross from former Reading United forward Ismael Noumansana.
