The Bluffton HIgh School boys soccer team began defense of its Northwest Conference title with a tense 1-0 league-opening win at Spencerville Monday evening.
The Pirates improved to 2-2-1 overall and 1-0 in NWC play with the win. Bluffton remains undefeated all-time in league play.
The defensive match was scoreless for the first half and most of the second half. Pirate Chase Kelly netted the first and only goal in the 72nd minute on an assist from Theo Andreas.
