South Marin Wolf Pack 13, Skyline U11A Trojans 1 Skyline’s U11A team continues a tough start to the 09 season with a loss to South Marin at Tamalpais High School field on Saturday afternoon.

Trevor Link made the only goal early in the first quarter - the assist was by Matthew Kaplan. Goalie Wills Bird worked hard to keep the ball out of the goal and came away with 7 saves in the game. Skyline’s U11A team continues to work hard to earn their first win. Boys U13A Opens With a Tough Loss The Skyline Lacrosse U13-A team suffered a stinging loss to very powerful appearing Firehawks team from Redwood City on Saturday. Early in the game Skyline offered a quick response with a Drew Bonnin goal after an early goal from the Firehawks after the opening face-off. From that point it was a very physical game with jarring body checks provided by both teams. Additional Skyline goals were provided in the first half by Peter Lally and Alessandro Chiodo but that proved to be the extent that Skyline was able to penetrate the Firehawk swarming defense. Skyline's goalie #42, Chase Betta, was kept busy by the Firehawk attack and provided some exciting saves. The final score, 15-3, was a disappointing season opener on the road. A wake-up call that the U-13 boys are in a very competitive league this season. |
