Waves earn two the hard way

The Wave of AYSO Region 5 (Fountain Valley) began its five week

journey in the Area K Boys Under-10 All-Star soccer tournament the hard

way, claiming a pair of one goal victories Saturday at J.R. Peterson

Elementary School in Huntington Beach.

The Wave needed a come-from-behind effort to win its tournament opener, a

2-1 decision over Region 55 (Central Huntington Beach). Fullback Max Volz

got the Wave even in the fourth quarter by scoring on a 30-yard direct

kick, and two minutes later, Richie Unfried drilled home the game-winning

goal.

In their second game, Ufried scored the lone goal of the match as The

Wave held off Region 143 (West Huntington Beach), 1-0. Goalies Volz and

Jordan Black combined for the shutout.

HB Blue nets two victories

The HB Blue of Region 56 (South Huntington Beach) also opened round robin

play in the Area K Tournament with a pair of victories at Peterson

School.

In the opener, Jacob Worthy knocked home a first half goal and Jeff

Schones scored in the second half as HB Blue went on to claim a 2-1

victory over Region 117 (Huntington Beach/Fountain Valley).

Schones also scored a first half goal later in the day in a 1-0 decision

over Region 517 (Santa Ana) in a victory that was not secured until Blue

goalie Brett Webber stopped a last second shot attempt by Santa Ana.
