More close losses for JV
While Davie’s varsity soccer team was mostly helpless during a one-win season, the JV was competitive just about every time out. The problem is it was absolutely snakebit.
After a 2-0 loss at Parkland, the young War Eagles fell short 2-1 at home against Glenn. It was the sixth one-goal loss of the season.
Hector Rodriguez had the goal as the JV finished 5-12-1 overall and 1-11-1 in the Central Piedmont Conference. The goal leaders for the season were Andy Longares (12), Rodriguez (six) and Isaiah Beaty (five).
Season ends for varsity soccer
In the final games of the season, Davie varsity soccer lost 6-1 at Parkland and 5-2 at home to Glenn. Zach Hill scored against Parkland, and Emmanuel Alanis and Alex Tarbet scored against Glenn. Mason Kuhnemann had an assist. Davie (1-20) finished last in the CPC. The standings: West forsyth 14-0, Reynolds 9-4-1, East Forsyth/Parkland 9-5, Mt. Tabor 7-6-1, Glenn 4-10, Reagan 3-11, Davie 0-14. Santiago Maganda led Davie with three goals. Gage Whitaker, Hamza Heikal, Justin Rayas and Tarbet had two each.
