Game Summary

For those old timers out there this was a game that could only be called a seesaw! In an exciting game, between two top teams, the play went back and forth with the pace being rabid throughout. Final score 0-0!!! It was a defensive slugfest all the way to the end. Carlsbad central defender and captain, Kat Padgett, literally, and figuratively, stood out in the crowd. Del Norte had several corners and each time Padgett was able to clear the ball with some great headers. Del Norte was able to rein in the Lancer attacks with fine defending and goal keeping by Junior Keeper Cass Manneh. Carlsbad, also, thwarted the potent Del Norte attack with excellent defending and great keeper play as well! Momentum shifts, and exciting soccer, kept the fans on the edge of their seats all night. This being the final warm-up before league play begins next week, Coach Higham was able to get significant playing time to all his players. Good luck to both teams as league play gets started.
