Laguna Beach tops Pateadores
- Share via
The Laguna Beach Soccer Club boys’ under-9 Division team had four
players get into the scoring act and Miguel Jaimes turned in a strong
performance in the net Saturday to help guide their team to a 5-3
victory over the Pateadores of Mission Viejo.
Laguna Beach gained control of the match from the outset, riding
first half goals by Paolo Noppenberger, Mark Hughes, Connaugh
McLaughlin and Wyatt Kirkland to a 4-2 lead at the intermission.
Both Pateadors first half goals were scored by their standout
forward, Zachary Agan.
Hughes contributed his second goal of the match early in the
second half to put Laguna Beach up, 5-2, but Agan countered with his
third goal as the Pateadores again cut the deficit to two goals.
Despite Agan’s hat trick, Jaimes turned back several other scoring
threats by the Pateadors.
Shawn Dillon, Logan Warren, Cole Kessler, Zack Lebon and Jack Winn
also had a big hand in Laguna Beach’s victory with solid play at both
ends of the field.
Tony Peiffer stepped in to coach Laguna Beach to the victory. A
scheduling conflict kept Andy Thomas, the team’s head coach, from
attending last Saturday’s match.
Thomas and Laguna Beach will return to the playing field on
Saturday to host the Revolution in a 3:45 p.m. match at Thurston
Middle School.
