Jair Rodriguez scores in the 2nd half

Fighting a tough wind and a pesky Brandeis team, the Clark Cougar varsity boys soccer squad won 2-0 in the district match.  Jair Rodriguez scored with 4 minutes gone in the 2nd half and Manuel Garcia with 16 minutes left in the game to seal the victory.

In the first half, the Cougars pounded the Bronco goal but could never quite hit the net.  At least 6 corner kicks resulted in no goals along with 3 other shots on goal.  In the 2nd half, however, with a strong wind at their backs, the Cougars dominated the Broncos with speed and skill.

The Cougars are ranked #2 by the Express News and are on the ESPN High school rankings.

Earlier, the girls varsity team lost to Brandeis 3-1.  Mallory Meyer scored for the Cougars.
