The Badger boys soccer team had a busy series
leading up to the first day of school, beating
St. Maries Thursday to keep their league record
perfect, falling Friday in a non-league game to
Kalispell's Stillwater Christian, and ending
with a tie Saturday with Coeur d'Alene JV.
In Thursday's home field shut-out, sophomore
Steffen Robles put in two headers to put the
Badgers on the boards, the first five-minutes in
off assist from senior Keaton Tremble, the next
at 20 minutes off an assist from freshman Jake
Tremble.
Jake Tremble scored unassisted goals at 31
minutes and 62 minutes to round out the scoring.
On Friday, the Badgers put up a strong fight,
again in front of a home crowd, but the SC
Cougars, after jumping out to a 2-0 lead early,
got another one past goalie Garrett Skeen, who
came up with some great saves to keep it close,
late in the game.
Junior midfielder Jesus Mendez scored an
unassisted goal off a Badger corner kick at 56
minutes, and it looked like the Badgers had
gained the momentum, but the Cougars got that
final goal with 20 minutes left in the game.
While the Badgers kept up the pressure with
solid play, they were unable to overcome the
Cougar defense or find the back of the net.
For their third game in three days, the Badgers
travelled to Coeur d'Alene High School to take
on their JV squad, and Skeen at the goal had an
outstanding game, making some spectacular saves,
but the game was scoreless until 47 minutes in,
when Jake Tremble grabbed a well-placed pass
from senior defender Ed Moe and put it through.
Adding to the Badger effort, according to coach
Ed Moe, was consistent solid play from junior
defender/midfielder Cameron Woods.
The Badgers were sure they had the game sewn up,
but a defensive miscue in the final minutes
enabled the Vikings to tie the game up just as
the game ended.
The Badgers are back on their home turf at 5
p.m. Friday, when they face St. Georges. |
