Game Recap

Newport Harbor 3, Marina 1

Newport Harbor Varsity fell behind Marina early in Thursday’s Sunset League matchup, but rallied with three goals in the second half to defeat the Vikings, 3-1.  Juniors provided the scoring Thursday, as Madison Wooters scored the tying goal followed by goals from Allie Pantoskey and Emily Browne.  Megan Case and Sophie Evans assisted on the last two goals.

The Sailors (18-2, 5-1 in league) started slow, yielding a rare goal  early in the first half.  “Fortunately, we regained the momentum in the second half,” coach Amanda Boyer said.  The Sailors face Edison at home Tuesday in a 3:15 game at NHHS Davidson Field.

Newport Harbor Junior Varsity beat Marina 7-0. Goals by Annie Pyle (2), Taury Hlinka (2), Kaitlin Shedd, Jill Messersmith, and Kirsten Rohan.

It’s Raining, It’s Pouring

Varsity & JV practices are canceled due to rain (and thunder and lightning). The girls will get together at their Team Dinner at the Barnard and Hancock homes. Tomorrow’s games will depend on the amount of rain we get tonight and tomorrow – we’ll keep you posted!

Good luck to Frosh/Soph as they travel to Moorpark to play Harvard Westlake on turf!

Highlander Champs

Sailors Win San Diego Highlander Tournament!

Junior Ally Pantoskey scored the go-ahead goal and senior Stephnaie Storch scored twice as Newport Harbor defeated San Diego Westview High School Saturday, 3-1, to win the Highlander Tournament at Helix High in La Mesa.  The Sailors won four games Friday and Saturday to reach the final, including a defeat of Mission Hills, 1-0, in the semifinal game.

The Sailors scored 20 goals and gave up none leading to the final. But Westview scored first in the final, on a penalty stroke midway through the first half. The Sailors responded with three goals in the second half to secure the win. Senior Sydney King sparkled in goal for the Sailors (16-2, 3-1 in league), with eight saves in the final. This is the Sailors’ second consecutive Highlander Tournament Championship.
