Sequim Blanks Under-Manned Bulldogs 5-0

April 22, Belfair

     Jeffrey Catton and Kai Antrim each had a pair of goals along with David LaBeaume as the Wolves scored 4 in the second half.  A thoroughly lethargic first half had most of the 20 plus die-hard Sequim faithful napping and Coach Brasher kicking imaginary gnomes in the sideline grass.  Antrim got the lead on 11 minutes after a luring run down the right sideline by Keller Batson opened up the middle for Jeffrey Catton to find a slot.  Catton hit Antrim and Kai finished strong from inside the goal box for the 1-0 lead.  Give-aways and fruitless corner kicks finished up the first 40 minutes.  Austin Sanford was solid in the central defense to thwart the minimal Bulldog pressure.

     The second half saw the Wolves play some better soccer and the blood began to flow from the 'Dogs on 57 minutes.  Catton unleashed a 25 yard bomb that found the back corner of the net after John Textor nesstled off a  gentle assist from the center.  Catton again was on range with a 35 yard rainbow left-footer from the right corner after Kevin Munro dropped him the ball from the depths of the corner.  LaBeaume wanted part of the kill and was set free through the middle after some nice work by Erik Huston.  LaBeaume took the feed and set the dagger deep in the net for a 4-0 cushion.  Antrim finished the scoring after some shoddy goalkeeping left a tasty rebound open for anyone who wanted it.  Kai said thank you and notched his 10th of the season.  Matt Bedinger notched his 4th shutout of the year with solid support from Sanford and Batson.

Knights Slice Open Wolves 5-3

March 15, Sequim Stadium - Sequim

           Francisco Garcia was too much for the Wolves as he single-handedly shredded the Wolves defensive game plan.           

As Dull As It Sounds 0-0

March 8, Buccaneer Stadium - Kingston

     "The most exciting 0-0 game I've ever seen!"  "Despite no scoring, the game had play-off intensity."  "There were oodles of great scoring opportunities and plenty of fabulous saves!"  None of these statements describe the opening game of the 2008 season.

     Playing on the new Field Turf at Buccaneer Stadium in Kingston, nothing of any real merit materialized for either side.  Kai Antrim was released on a couple breakaways and showed early season jitters as he dribbled himself out of position and into the side netting.  The 3-5-2 formation experiment failed miserably with Zane Carey and Greg Dunbar, the holding midfielders, looking lost and never really getting into the attack.  Jeffery Catton played well as left defender but never was able to generate any offense from that spot.

     Matt Bedinger, in his first varsity start had 2 decent late saves to retain the shut-out but the main result was that much improvement is necessary to make the play-offs.
