Albemarle dropped their second straight district home game to the Panthers 28-13, leaving the Patriots, who started the season 3-1, with a 3-3 record and a 1-2 district mark that’s going to make the final stretch of the season an uphill climb.

Junior midfielder James Wittwer scored in the second half to lift the Albemarle boys soccer team to a 1-0 victory over Massaponax in the Commonwealth District semifinals on Tuesday night.
