Blaine boys soccer won 3–1 at Nooksack Valley, the first win of the season for Blaine soccer.
“The kids have been working really hard for that win every game,” said Blaine head coach Gio Quesada. “I think they felt like this was the chance, because the last two games will be harder against Sedro-Woolley and Burlington-Edison.”
Blaine took the lead in the first half on a goal by freshman Carlos De Carvalho. Nooksack answered with a goal and the first half ended in a tie.
The small Blaine team has had trouble keeping up in the second half after first-half ties in recent games, but it finished strong with goals by freshman Preston King and senior Alex Mercado. “It was a team effort,” Quesada said. “Everyone worked hard for it.”
Next, Blaine plays its senior game at 4:30 p.m. on Thursday, April 25 at home against Sedro-Woolley.
