Lexi Platz

The Clark girls soccer team struck early and often on Friday keeping the Stevens goalkeeper busy with 22 saves. There were also plenty of Cougar shots in the back of the net as Clark dominated in a 5-0 victory. Monique Rempel had two goals and Alyssa Jacobs, Lexi Platz and Andrea Del Valle came away with one each. Adding assists were Frances Moore, Kendall Traa, Kallie Doherty and Caroline Veltman. The defense secured the shutout as Kendall Kotara and Katie Troilo split time in goal.

The win evens Clark’s district record at 1-1 and brings them to 5-4-2 for the season so far.

Following the girls’ victory the boys team had a shut out of their own beating Steven 2-0. Jaron Bustillo-Pineda scored both goals for the Cougars and Manuel Garcia assisted both times. Clark is still undefeated at 1-0-1 in district play and 6-0-2 for the season.

Up next both teams face Taft on Tuesday at Farris. The boys start things off at 5:00 and the girls play at 7:00.

GO COOGS!

Clark’s girls and boys soccer teams spent spring break scoring goals and improving their records. The girls are now in playoff position with a 4th place standing in district and two games remaining. The Cougars beat Warren 3-1 on March 9th and Stevens 8-0 on March 13th. Scoring goals were Chloe Trevino (3), Frances Moore (2), Monique Rempel (2), Lexi Platz, Alyssa Jacobs, Briana Aguirre and Andi Poore. Obviously a lot of great defense in those two games as well.

The Clark boys remain in second place in district, just a hair away from Jay, who handed them their only loss of the season. The Cougars are 11-1-2 in district and jay is 10-0-3. Jay has three game remaining and the Cougars have two. The boys beat Warren 3-0 over spring break and Stevens 7-0 behind goals from Jair Rodriguez (3), Carlos Sepulveda (3), Yamil Alvarado (2), John Cintron and John Bruce.
