LJ b soccer 1, Crawford 0

By Ed Piper

A pair of ospreys cackled from their nest atop a light stanchion at Mission Bay High's stadium as both teams stood at midfield during the first half of the National Anthem, then one sprang from the nest to soar high over the field during the remainder of the anthem before La Jolla's second-round boys soccer match against Crawford Sat., Feb. 27.

It seemed to be a good sign, and it was for the Vikings, who haven't seen much playoff action in recent years. Jack Barone, back from a long absence due to an injury, popped in the lone goal of the game after the clock stopped at the end of the first half, and La Jolla made it stand up for the 1-0 victory.
