Game 19: State Quarter Finals vs Mill Valley

4 November vs. Mill Valley at STA in State Quarters (2-0)

We were told Mill Valley was scrappy, and they were.  Moreover, the have some darn good soccer players. They were well organized as well. 

We did have the better opportunities, but this was a close match that ended 2-0.  We cashed an first-half  corner, before getting a second half Cole Younger goal from the field. We had a few other good looks, but this was a very well played, tight match. 

For us we really got some great play from guys who did not start tonight, like Danny Gabriel and Joe Skevington with probably the most impressive play coming from, The BWhite Player of the Game, Pedro Arias. B said the one reason we met at halftime with a 1-0 lead was the defense of Pedro at center midfield.

Heying did nab both assists, playing left back for the match. The touch and angel he put on that second one for Cole was just beautiful soccer.

We now move on to the final four, opening Friday against the exact same foe as last year, Bishop Carroll. It will be a tough match. But if we are going to repeat, we will need to get all hands on deck and grab this one from Carroll.
