La Jolla boys soccer coach Marcos Gonzales was feeling some of the euphoria from the Vikings' 2-0 win over Clairemont Fri., Dec. 18. Maybe it was the Christmas spirit.
"This year, good. Scary good next year," the head coach said of his team as he headed off the field to go home.
Forward Cesar Canton had just helped dispatch the Chieftains by scoring the only two goals of the game. Canton, 5'4" or so, is just a sophomore.
There are other "Super Sophomores" who are propelling the Vikings in the early pre-league season. Marco Furlanis, Mason Matalon, and Joe Wineman are a few of them.
Jack Barone, a junior, looks active. Andrew Estrella, a returning junior, is captain this year. Tai Nguyen is the new goalkeeper.
These younger players combined with seniors like Noah Shen, a returning defender, to squelch Clairemont. It was a match filled with complaints, remarks, and yellow cards from the referees.
Said Shen after Canton's pair of goals, "Without him we probably wouldn't have won our past games."
Vikes' Marco Furlanis has looked
go in pre-league season.
