Right away the boys varsity team showed what they have by becoming champions of their first tournament of the season.
In the Cats and Hounds Tournament our Dons beat schools such as Dos Pueblos, St. Joseph, etc. With scores of 9-0 2-1, and 2-0 the boys dominated. During the four days and three nights which they were playing, only one goal was scored against them.
Offensive goals were scored by Vincent Alvarez, Chris Vasquez, Javier Garcia, and Jesse Gonzalez.
Christian Pardo did well in the South Torrance Tournament scoring five goals in total, one in each game.
The guys left Thursday evening at six and returned Sunday afternoon.
Junior Juan Torres stated, “It was a really fun experience and we are all very proud of what we accomplished during that tournament; everyone played great.”
Senior Javier Garcia added, “The tournament was a total success, we all worked as one and the results were great. Not only that, during games and in-between games we had a lot of fun.”
The guys also enjoyed spending time together as a team. This trip definitely brought them closer as teammates.
Sophomore Jesse Gonzalez commented about the tournament, “It was fun and it was even better that we were champs.”
They are now more confident than ever and more determined to continue to do well throughout the season.
On Tuesday the boys played Moorpark at Moorpark and were again victorious with a score of
4-0.
