The Shorewood boys’ soccer team knocked Glacier Peak out of a tie for first place in the Western Conference 3A South with a 3-0 victory over the Grizzlies at Shoreline Stadium Friday under dry and windless conditions that made for a solid and competitive match between host Shorewood and visiting Glacier Peak.
The play went back and forth for most of the first half with Shorewood having more chances to score, but Glacier Peak have a couple of very dangerous opportunities. Finally in the 37th minute Kabir Kahn was able to finish a pass from Anthony Pepe for the game’s first goal. Three minutes later Dylan Collins finished a long pass from Alex Payton for a 2-0 lead at the half.
Glacier Peak came out fired up and ready to challenge in the second half, but Shorewood was able to squelch their efforts in part by some acrobatic saves from Calvin Crawford. At the 52nd minute Danny Han scored on a ball sent in by Max Sando to Taj McChesney who passed it to Han.
Goalie Calvin Crawford recorded the shutout for Shorewood.
Shorewood’s 7-1-1 Wesco 3A record gives the Thunderbirds 15 points, leaving Shorewood in a tie with Shorecrest, which has a 6-0-3 Wesco 3A record after a 4-0 victory at Meadowdale. Glacier Peak is 6-2-1 in league play and 6-5-1 overall. Shorewood is 9-1-1 overall.
Shorewood next meets Stanwood Monday at 7:30pm at Stanwood High School, with junior varsity teams from the two schools playing at 5:30pm.
