LJ b soccer: Recap

By Ed Piper

Nico Campos broke through for the first score, then teammate Pablo Jativa followed with the first of his two goals to lead a La Jolla 4-0 win at San Diego Jewish Academy Tues., Dec. 18.

The result became academic once Coach Marcos Gonzales' Vikings constructed the 2-0 halftime lead, with earnest but limited opposition from the Lions, many of whom are bilingual and have played for La Jolla assistant coach Victor Zendejas.

Campos and Jativa each added a goal in the second half on the beautifully-manicured USGA-standard natural turf at the private school.

But, in the hard-trying Lions' defense, they played the Vikings much closer than they did two years ago on the same pitch. In that game, La Jolla, behind striker Luis Goehler, crushed SDJA, leading 5-0 by halftime, only letting up in the second half to run away with the non-league contest.
