The U13 girls Red team melted the Icebreakers 3-0 in North Okanagan Youth Soccer League house action Saturday.

Quita King was player of the match for being a sensational defender and saving a ball on her goal line for the Icebreakers.

Keeper Kaylee Goodrich was solid and had excellent goal kicks moving the ball up the field.

Livia Kowalski shined up front with four shots on net, but couldn’t squeak one past the Reds’ keeper.

The U13 boys Fairfield Inn handed the Printech Gold Prowlers their first loss of the season, 4-2.

Fairfield Inn jumped out to a 3-0 lead in the first half.

The Prowlers responded in the second with goals from Jackson Buller and Tage Kineshanko. Brad Cramer and Ben Molitwenik supplied the helpers.

With the Prowlers within striking distance, Fairfield Inn pulled away after picking up the insurance tally.

The Italian Kitchen Scrubs slipped past Team 1 4-3 in a cooker last Friday night.

Aiden Buckley and Braydon Beese each sniped a pair for the kitchen crew.

In rep play from the weekend, Vernon United U12 girls were held without a goal in two games in Kamloops.

After a 5-0 loss to Kelowna in the morning game, the afternoon fixture proved to be a close fought battle against Kamloops, which ended in a 0-0 draw.

Vernon had the majority of the possession and chances. A strong defensive effort by Alex Murphy, Dilan Sidhu, Olivia Johnson, and Shaina Jones allowed Vernon to mount wave after wave of attack.

Sydney Torrie provided sprinter-like speed down the wings, while Kate Mcintosh and Karmen Janke demonstrated excellent vision and patience in distribution.

Vernon’s best chances at a goal came from long range efforts from Emma Baycroft and Jordyn Morris.

Keeper Brianna Li made several diving saves and dominated the six-yard box in support of the draw.
