SEAGULLS SECURE FIRST COWAPA WIN

Henry Broderick scored from the top of the penalty box off a cross by Jose Peon with ten minutes remaining in the first half and the Seaside Seagulls held on to defeat Yamhill-Carlton 1-0 in a Cowapa League boys soccer match Monday.


"We owned the ball, possessed the ball an awful lot in the first half," said Seaside head coach John Broderick. "We couldn't get very many powerful shots off. Their keeper [all-leaguer Greg Slater] made about six or eight saves."


Seagulls goalkeeper Bren Bletcher made a few saves of his own, including one that saw him upended by a Scappoose attacker, drawing a yellow card.


"We put out all the fires and made no defensive mistakes," said Broderick.


The Seagulls, now 1-0-1 in Cowapa League, return to action Wednesday against Scappoose with the game time up in the air following the rescheduling of the Astoria-Seaside girls game, which has been postponed one day to Wednesday.
