SOCCER

The Chelan Soccer team hosted Manson, Bridgeport and Oroville at their Jamboree at Mountain Goat Field. The weather was sunny but a little windy and cool.

The Goats took on Bridgeport first in a 20 minute game with both teams keeping the ball out of the net for a zero-zero session Bridgeport and Chelan both looked strong with Chelan getting more time on the offense. They had two clear shots at goal but both went high and over the goal.

Manson and Chelan mixed it up but also came away scoreless. Both teams looked and played equally well on the field which should make for a real barn burner when they meet in a full game situation.

Coach Jamie Richards is excited to be back coaching the Chelan team. “We have 43 out which is a little short,” said Richards. “We like it. It means more coaching per player which lets us get back to that foundation we have had.”

He’s also excited about some good freshmen coming on board. Ronnie Barajas and Eric Cardenas are back as his senior captains.

The Soccer Team will kick off the regular season on Tuesday, March 13 against Brewster and then open their home stand against Tonasket on Thursday, March 15, with the kickoff at 4:30.

SOFTBALL:

Chelan’s Lady Goats opened their fast pitch softball season in Brewster on Saturday against the Brewster Bears and Liberty Bell Mountain Lions.

The Jamboree consisted of three innings for each team with Brewster opening with Chelan. The Bears won 5-1, scoring three runs in the third inning of play. These runs came off a home run by Brewster’s A. Unias. Chelan’s Taylor Sams took the loss surrending five runs on eight hits over the three innings. She struck out one and walked one. Brewster had eight hits in the game.

In its second game against the Liberty Bell Mountain Lions a single in the third inning helped the Lady Goats to a 5-5 tie. Taylor Boykin went 2-for-2 at the plate to lead the Goats in hits.

BASEBALL:

The Chelan Goat Baseball Team traveled to Quincy for its opening Jamboree that was originally scheduled for Chelan, but the field was still unplayable.

The Goats played both the Quincy Jackrabbits and Cashmere Bulldogs in three inning contests, winning game one against the Jacks 1-0 and then roaring back in game two against the long time CTL powerhouse, Cashmere, earning a well deserved 6-0 victory.

In game one it was Conner Wilson and Drake Bird looking sharp on the mound, combining for a no-hit shutout against the Jacks. In game two, Beckin Sporseen and Quinn Stamps combined to shutout the Bulldogs.

Chelan’s offense came alive with all players contributing at the plate and a number of young players getting their first varsity high school playing time.

The season really starts next Saturday as the Goats host the Okanogan Bulldogs in a double header at Mountain Goat Field with the first pitch at 11 a.m.
