Soccer isn’t about winning, or about scoring goals, or even kicking a ball around for that matter; it’s about teamwork, stamina, and improvement. The boys varsity soccer team exemplifies all of this as they kicked off to a new season.
The boys varsity soccer team started off their season against La Salle on Dec. 3, tying 0-0. It was hard for them to tell whether their season ahead of them was looking dim or bright because of their unanimous score. On Dec. 7, the team played against Maranatha and defeated them 3-0. One day later, the team traveled to La Salle’s territory, hoping to beat them to turn their previous win into a winning streak. Sadly, their ends just didn’t meet when they brutally lost 1-5. Their next competitor was Bishop Amat, where they tied 1-1. The team then had a tied game of 2-2 against Hoover and had a loss of 0-1 against Pasadena. Up until this point into the season, their scores have fluctuated greatly as their results rolled back and forth on a scale of wins and losses.
On Dec. 21, the boys varsity soccer team had a Monrovia tournament against Gladstone and had yet another loss of 1-2. That same day, they had a game against Rowland and continued their losing streak when they scored 2-4. The next day, the team regained their strength and won 3-0 against Ontario Christian.
After being fully rested during the winter break, the team came back into the season stronger than ever. Their game against Burbank was successful when they beat them 3-0. Sadly, their scores just went downhill from there. On Jan. 11, the team had Burbank as their opponent, in which they tied 4-4. The boys varsity soccer team then lost 0-1 against Muir,1-3 against Glendale, and 1-2 against Cresenta Valley. The team didn’t have such great hopes for their game against Hoover too, when they took a tough loss of 0-1. Pasadena was their next competitor on Jan. 27 where they tied 2-2. Two days later, the boys varsity soccer team finally had a triumphant win against Burbank with a score of 4-1.
