Tammaro scores on PK

Needing a win to keep up in the district race, the Lady Cougars varsity soccer team beat Warren 1-0 at Northside.  The game, which saw several yellow cards and rowdy play by both teams, came down to a successful penalty kick by senior Brianna Tammaro midway through the second half.  Amy Ross once again delivered the shutout, her fifth in a row.

#23 Tammaro plays heads up ball

The Clark Men’s varsity basketball team maintained a #4 ranking in this week’s Express News rankings but fell out of the top twenty state rankings for the first time this year.  Their 24-5/10-2 district record has them in 2nd place in the district behind #3 Express News/#11 in the state Stevens.  In soccer, the men’s varsity also stayed at #9 in the Express News men’s soccer rankings.  Currently 3rd, a win vs. Warren would put them in 1st in a tight district race.  Finally, congratulations to senior Brianna Tammaro for her “game ball” mention in the Express News for her outstanding defense over the past four games.  The Lady Cougars soccer team is also in a tight district race, currently 3rd, and has not allowed a goal in the past four games.

#13 Claudio Alvarez

Down 1-0 in the first half, the men’s JV soccer team stepped it up and scored  two goals to defeat the Panthers in district play.  Like the men’s varsity, their record is now 3-1-1 in 28-5A.  Claudio Alvarez and Bruno DiPetta scored for Clark.

The #9 ranked Clark Cougars varsity men’s soccer team scored four goals and only allowed one as they defeated the O’Connor Panthers in district play 4-1.  Francisco Garza, Placide Buduri, Esteban Rodriquez and Evan Javors each scored for the Coogs. Placide also had two assists in the win.

Ross saves again

Following an outburst of five goals in the previous game, the Lady Cougars varsity soccer team couldn’t find their scoring legs against the O’Connor Panthers, ranked #7 by the Express News.  The good news is neither could O’Connor as sophmore goal keeper Amy Ross made several saves and shutout the Panthers.  The result is a tie for both teams.  Clark’s district record now stands at 2-0-3.

C. Sepulveda

If you play soccer for Jay, the school you don’t want to see is Clark.  Following in the footsteps of the 5-0 wins by both the men’s and ladies’ varsity teams, the men’s JV Clark Cougars joined in the fun with a 5-0 win over the Jay JV.  Carlos Sepulveda scored early and then with less than 5 minutes left in the game, scored again.  In those same five minutes, so did Elijah Mayfield, Abdi Mahdi and Endrit Skenderi.

J. Lawson

Like the Ladies, the Men’s Varsity soccer team put a whoppin’ to John Jay on the soccer field, handing them an equally brutal 5-0 defeat.  Johnny Lawson scored as many times as his jersey number (3) for the Cougars and Luis Hernandez and Juan Munoz also added to the total.  Goalies Brandon Van Wagner had 6 saves in the net and Brandon Reyes added 3 more saves to keep the shutout.

L. Pool pummels Jay

The Lady Cougars Varsity soccer team unleashed their scoring legs and ripped Jay for 5 goals in a victory in District 28-5A.  Leslie Pool scored 2 and Macy Ellis, Alyssa Bloom, and Gabrielle Santorio also put one in the net.

G. Garcia

Despite goals from freshman Ty Williams and junior Gutavo Garcia, the Men’s JV soccer team lost to the Marshall Rams 3-2. That makes their district record an even 1-1-1.

The Men’s Soccer team faced the same result as the ladies when facing Marshall on the soccer pitch, a 1-1 tie. Placide Budury scored the goal for Clark. In hoops action, the Men’s varsity took Jay to the woodshed and gave them a 74-49 whoopin’.
