When they have the time and the space at Thayer Academy, there’s one thing Chris Cabral and Nate Austin-Johnstone really like to do.
Battle.
The two juniors, who are also club teammates with Laxachusetts, are natural rivals in ability. Cabral is an aggressive, 6-foot-3, 210-pound defender. Austin-Johnstone is a 5–foot-11, 205-pound leader of the offense at attack or midfield.
These are big-boy battles.
