9-23-08: YORK @ STERLING

Here is an article about the York game, which I found at "The Stir" or the "Sterling Bulletin" and which is written by soccer player Godfrey Miheso:


WARRIORS SOCCER SCRAPES WIN AGAINST YORK


A late goal helped the men’s soccer team advance to a 6-1 record after winning over visiting York College, 2-1. Coach Dave Underwood said he was less than satisfied with the win.

“Obviously, I was very happy with the win and improving our season record to 6-1,” Underwood said. “However, we were a little sloppy in our attack, mishandling a lot of good scoring opportunities.”

The Warriors created plenty of opportunities to win the tightly contested game. The team took 18 shots at the goal.

“We started on a low note, but came back to grab the win we deserved,” senior Shawn Sajjadi said.

Sterling finally got on the board when senior Jorge Bueso received a pass from sophomore Sheriff Sanusi at the back right, and drove the ball into the back of net.

The score was 1-1 midway through the second period.

Senior Ryan Covey was able to finally break the dead-lock with two minutes left when he drove past York’s defense, scoring the winning goal with ease.

The Warriors also won against Central Christian College a week earlier 3-0, with all three goals scored in the second half. Bueso and Covey scored with ten minutes left.

Warriors next face Oklahoma Christian in Oklahoma City.
