Crosspoint 3,

Port Townsend 1

PORT TOWNSEND — Crosspoint Academy scored within the first 30 seconds and then scored twice in the second half to hold off the Redskins on Monday night.

Port Townsend’s Jewel Johnson scored a minute into the second half to tie up the game on an assist by Irina Lyons.

“Our goal came from a fine through ball from Irina Lyons which Jewel Johnson ran on to and slipped past the goalkeeper,” Port Townsend coach Colin Foden said.

After losing a shock goal within 30 seconds of the kickoff, Port Townsend settled into the game and dominated most of the first half possession, which would be expected because Crosspoint had only 10 players, Foden said.

Many Port Townsend chances were squandered and they came back to haunt the team as Crosspoint scored two well-crafted goals in the second half.
