Tacoma Stars Reserves 17, Oly Town Artesians 5
The Tacoma Stars Reserves lit up the scoreboard in the second half to set a single game scoring record with a 17-5 win over the Oly Town Artesians. Nate Ford scored four goals and Eddie Na added a hat trick and nine different Stars scored goals on the evening. Chris Pugh and Collin Tate led the Artesians with two goals apiece.
The Stars Reserves jumped out to a 1-0 lead midway through the first period and built a 5-1 lead in the second quarter after Artesians keeper Bradley Hanson had to leave the game after making a save with his face. He was taken to the hospital and is OK but will miss the remainder of the season with a severe concussion. Down by four, his replacement, Luis Magana, made a series of incredible saves and kept the game close and allowed the Artesians to get back in the game, down just two midway through the third quarter, 6-4.
But the dam finally broke and the Stars Reserves outscored the Artesians 11-1 over the final 19 minutes and stayed undefeated at 3-0-0 with a visit from Bellingham United looming next weekend.
Tacoma Stars Reserves goals: Nate Ford (4), Eddie Na (3), Mark Lee (2), Danny Minniti (2), JJ Schmeck (2), Adrian Correa, Isidro Prado-Huerta, Alex Sotelo, Micah Wenzel
