SPORTS: Port Angeles plays powerhouse Kingston even in boys soccer; other prep reports

PORT ANGELES — The Port Angeles boys soccer team took Olympic League powerhouse Kingston to the limit, settling for a 0-0 tie Thursday.

The two teams battled through 80 minutes of regulation and 10 minutes of overtime before getting the tie in the opening league match for both teams.

Each team picked up one point for the tie.

In regular season games, Olympic League teams do not compete in a penalty-kick shootout after tying in regulation and overtime.

Port Angeles played its second game at Wally Sigmar Athletic Complex on the Peninsula College campus because its field, Civic, is still too soggy to play on.

Port Angeles, 0-0-1 in league and 2-2-1 overall, was outshot 18-12 by the Buccaneers.

It was a step forward for the Roughriders to play Kingston even, Port Angeles coach Chris Saari said.

“Our passing game was really good; we kept possession of the ball,” Saari said.

“I’m really proud of how we played.”

Sophomore goalkeeper Jack Doryland earned 11 saves in the game for the Riders.

“Jack had some big saves for us; he kept us in the game,” Saari said.

Doryland was named co-defensive player of the game with junior defender Max Bukovnik while junior forward/midfielder Tamrat Haskins was selected offensive player and junior midfielder/forward Ali El Maallam was picked as transition player.

The Riders next play at North Mason in Belfair in a nonleague game at noon Saturday, varsity only.

Cascade Christian 1, Chimacum 0

PUYALLUP — The Cowboys dominated Cascade in the second half but couldn’t come up with the equalizing goal after Cascade scored in the 35th minute Thursday.

Chimacum still is looking for its first win, falling to 0-1-1 in the Nisqually League and 0-2-1 overall.

The Cowboys outshot Cascade 5-2 in a defensive struggle.

Chimacum next plays at Port Angeles on Monday in a nonleague game.

North Kitsap 3, 
Port Townsend 1

PORT TOWNSEND — The Redskins are still looking for their first win of the year after dropping the Olympic League game Thursday.

Max Gunn scored in the second minute to give the Redskins a 1-0 lead but the Vikings scored the next three goals.

North Kitsap didn’t score the deciding goal until the 47th minute.

Port Townsend goalkeeper Brian LeMaster had 12 saves in the game.

The Redskins next host archrival Chimacum on Wednesday night in a nonleague game.

Sequim will travel to Auburn on Saturday to take on Auburn Mountainview.
