BOYS SOCCER

Top performer: Brandon Gonzalez, Auburn Riverside, sr.

1 goal, 2 assists — in 3-0 shutout of Peninsula

Auburn Riverside 3, Peninsula 0: Brandon Gonzalez scored on what Ravens coach Robyn Saarenas said was a sideways bicycle kick in the 39th minute and assisted on two other goals as Auburn Riverside cruised past the Seahawks.

Gonzalez found Sahanie Shell in the 20th minute to put the Ravens up 1-0 and Shell returned the favor with an assist to Gonzalez in the 39th. Gonzalez dribbled about half the length of the pitch to find Emilio Nunez in the 67th minute, Saarenas said.

Riley Dunne posted the shutout in goal. No team has scored on Auburn Riverside (7-0-0; 5-0-0 3A SPSL) since he took over in goal during the second half of Auburn Riverside’s win over Sumner on March 25. That was because starting keeper Andy Starkel went down with a bone bruise on his foot. Saarenas said he could miss a few more weeks.

The Ravens have only allowed two goals all season -- and those came in the first match of the year in a 3-2 win over Stadium.

Peninsula (5-3-0; 4-2-0) lost its second consecutive league match after starting league play with four consecutive wins.

Sumner 4, Enumclaw 2: The Hornets cut the lead to a goal when Gus Cardenas scored in the 70th minute, but Sumner’s Michael Poe hit an insurance goal in the 80th and the Spartans held on for the win.

Nick Phillips scored two goals -- one in the fifth minute and another in the 22nd -- for Sumner (3-3-1; 2-3-0 3A SPSL).
