The U-17 boys Islanders soccer team fell 6-1 in its home opener with Puyallup Sunday, Sept.21.

“The overall team play is not reflective of the score line,” coach Curtis Vieke said. “Just a few missed opportunities and lapses on the defensive side.”

Chaz Purdy scored for the Islanders.

The Islanders’ next match is 11 a.m. Sunday, Sept. 28, at Fort Nugent Park.
