Turn-Key FC returned to the North Okanagan Soccer League win column with a 5-0 victory over Peters Tirecraft/Concept Physio in Wednesday night at Marshall Field #4.
After falling to the league-leading Salmon Arm Courvas last week, Turn-Key (6-4) opened the scoring early when Nolan’s Pharmasave Man of the Match Evan Moore calmly slotted home a penalty resulting from a hand ball inside the 18.
Turn-Key carried the play in the beginning, but the 1-9-2 Tireman defence did a good job of limiting the shots to the outside and marking through balls. Thomas Pool finally found some room behind the Peters back line and unleashed a top-shelf rocket to make it 2-0 at the break.
Turn-Key opened the second half with a flurry of uncapitalized chances before winger Taylor Horsting set up Preston Tucker for a strike inside the box.
Gregg Douma converted a penalty-area scramble shortly after, and with the Tiremen down a man due to a red card with 10 minutes remaining, Conan Ackert completed the offence.
Jeremy Kler and Kyle Goodgrove split the shutout, with Goodgrove making the Total Restoration Save of the Game with a textbook roll early in the second half.
Monashee Surveying reeled off their third straight win with a 7-2 decision over the host Salmon Arm Outlaws.
Monashee, now 5-5-1, scored on the game’s first play courtesy of a Rodney Goodchild shot. The 0-11 Outlaws tie it up off a corner kick, but Okanagan Spirits Man of the Match Nick Croken replied with the first of his three goals after Ryan Sharp lobbed a through ball behind the Outlaw defence.
Croken’s second came on a rebound off a free kick. Then, after six straight Monashee corners, Mike Arding converted the 4-1 goal.
Croken, Devon Marriott and Sharp, catching everyone standing around on a free kick, rounded out the Monashee attack.
The Hi-Pro Sportswear Camels handled Riot FC with ease on Marshall #2, turning a 4-0 halftime score into a 11-0 full-time win.
It was one of those nights where everything clicked for the team in orange. Good ball movement, strong challenges and a quick transition ensured the 2-8-2 Riot could not produce any real threat.
Trevor Rachwalski and Enzo Paal posted hat-tricks for the 7-4-2 Camels, while Ryan Campbell shared in the shutout and fired a last-minute penalty. Keenan Jesperson, Khiran O’Neill, Nick Pantaleo and Nathan Whitling added to the attack.
North Enderby Timber prevailed 1-0 over host Eagle Homes Nation of Domination in a hard-fought tilt in Salmon Arm.
NOD (6-2-2) controlled the play for the first 20 minutes, but were shutdown by the NET back line.
Dexter James supplied the offence for the 8-3-1 timbermen in the 30th minute after the NOD keeper bobbled a Graham Ross free kick. NET struck the woodwork four times in the second half.
The Speedpro Man of the match went to the Timber back line of Chris Ovens, Jesse Knight, Evan Frederick, Tyler Loose and Scott Wallace. Keeper Danny Stein earned the shutout while wishing parents Marty and Tammy a happy 31st anniversary.
