Sequim blows by Wolves / Soccer

Sequim took advantage of a strong wind at its back to notch three first-half goals on the way to a 3-1 win over Coupeville Friday, March 17, at Mickey Clark Field.

“With the change of sides at half, we were able to apply a lot more pressure, but only able to get one goal out of it,” Coupeville coach Kyle Nelson said. “It was a good game for us to get experience playing against some fast and talented soccer players.”

The Wolves scored when William Nelson curved in a corner kick.

“He almost got a second one the same way a few minutes later if not for a well-placed defender heading the ball just clear of the back post,” coach Nelson said.

Coupeville (1-1-1) travels to Forks (1-2) for a 3:30 p.m. match Tuesday, March 21.
