Seventh-ranked Everett continued its dominance in Wesco North 3A soccer with a 9-0 win over visiting Oak Harbor Monday, Oct. 22.

The Seagulls are 10-1-1 (12-2-1) in league action; no other North team as more than five wins.

Oak Harbor coach Jeff Laiblin said Everett "physically beat us up, which led to mistakes."

He added, "We came out strong, but once they pushed their size and turned the game into a physical match, we lost our focus, made mistakes. We just didn't have the size or depth to match them."

The Wildcats (0-12, 1-13-1) end their 2012 season with a home match against Stanwood (5-6-1, 6-7-1) at 7 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 24.
