DP boys soccer loses to SM
The Dos Pueblos boys soccer team lost to San Marcos on Thursday, falling by a score of 3-0.
San Marcos’ first goal was scored in the 28th minute, and it would be the only goal scored in the first half.
“Going into the half, our team felt pretty good that we were able to hang with this talented San Marcos team,” said Dos Pueblos Coach Matt York.
However, just two minutes into the second half, San Marcos scored again, securing their third goal just six minutes later.
“I thought senior forward Matt Sillers played an excellent game up front for us and was responsible for some of our only dangerous play on the night, senior fullback Ryan Orosco ran hard for us up and down the sideline all game, and freshman center back Andrew Gomez played with the composure and calmness of a senior … even against a rival,” said York.
Dos Pueblos’ record dropped to 1-8 on the year.
