Boys Soccer 2015-03-14 vs Anacortes

 
It was a very windy day Saturday afternoon as the Wildcat soccer team started their season with a pair of games against Anacortes at Wildcat Memorial Stadium.

In the JV game, the visiting Seahawks took advantage of the strong winds to score 3 first-half goals against the 'Cats.

In the 2nd half, now with the wind at their backs, the Wildcats scored twice themselves, but could not get that 3rd goal to tie the game and fell 3-2.

Photos from the JV game are posted HERE.

In varsity action, the two teams played to a 0-0 halftime tie, but in the 2nd half, with Anacortes having the wind at their backs, the tide turned.

The Seahawks scored two goals in just over 1 minute to take a 2-0 lead that would stand to the end of the game.
