WESTFORD — Westford Academy Boys Soccer won 2-1 to Waltham in their Senior Night on Oct. 26.

Neither team scored during the first half, although there were close calls. Into the second half, the Ghosts went into action, and senior Lucas Albuquerque scored with an assist from junior Alexander Xiang seven minutes in. WA was able to carry that momentum, and with 25 minutes left in the game, junior Kavi Soman won the Ghosts another goal with Lucas Albuquerque assisting.

Both teams went back and forth with the ball, with WA close to getting a few more goals; however, they were not able to stop Waltham from scoring in the last five minutes of the game.

WABS has its next game on Monday, Oct. 30 at 4 p.m. at Chelmsford High School.
