Pirates Launch Girls Soccer Team he JV soccer team had a successful season finishing with a 11-7-4 re- cord which gave them third place in their league. The highlight of the season was the scoreless tie with previously un- beaten, untied Cabrillo. Spearheading the offense, which scored a 3.5 goal per game average, was high scorer Michael Ongley followed closely by Sean Haidet and Tom Chausse. On the other end of the field Julie Sarratt, Dave Joller and Scott Emmons, along with Don Taylor in goal anchored the stingy defense allowing only 1.5 goals per game. League play saw the team function as one unit, said Coach Ludin. MBHS also participated in the forma- tion of the first girls' soccer league to- gether with five other schools. Coach Warren Ristow took a group of girls most of whom had only a little or no exper- ience, and created a team which was not only competitive but was in second place in the league throughout most of the sea- son. ln addition to that success, six of the girls will play in the All Star soccer game. 108 Soccer

lear The Ball lear the ball, is a familiar cry that the soc- cer team's defense hears all too often from the overdeveloped vocal chords of coach Gerry Carrasco. Thanks to the South Bay Soccer Association, the soccer program and Car- rasco's voice are getting stronger each year. lt's the third year of coaching for Carrasco, Craig Dearden, and Larry Myrick and the consistency has begun to pay off. The team had many veteran athletes this year, because most of them started playing soccer with the South Bay Soccer Associ- ation where they gained both skills and exper- ience. All of the coaches have coached youth soccer and have worked with some of the players since elementary school. Outstanding players included Todd Dearden and Max Truax at forward, Jim Freeman at mid- field, and Doug Franco at fullback. Todd Dearden and Max Truax were the two leading scorers. No team can win without a strong defense and goalie Ali Atash did an outstanding job filling in for the injured Geoff Behrmann. One of the sweetest vic- tories was against long time rival Atascadero. The junior varsity was much improved with the help of assistant coach Roger Ludin. Key players included Mike Kiyama, Sean Haidet, and Mike Ongley at center. Mike Ongley was the leading scorer on the team. This year saw the first all girl soccer team. Un- der the direction of coach Warren Ristow, there was no trouble finding enough girls to fill the squad. The players were all ready and eager to play.Their first year was a great success. lt goes to show that soccer is for everyone. I E Zl, 23 ' ig K I if T 4 4 s IS 5 U le. 5 ' W yn V Q t if m 4?
