Medical Lake soccer tops Lakeside, falls to Riverside

Medical Lake got a pair of first half goals from Peter Hanson leading the Cardinals to a 5-3 Northeast A League boys’ soccer victory over Lakeside in Suncrest, April 12.

The Cardinals (2-2 NEA, 4-5 overall) were defeated April 14 when Xavier Batle-Fuentes scored twice in Riverside’s 2-0 win at Sheppard Field.

Nick Rosenbeck also scored in the first half as the Cardinals took a 3-1 lead versus the Eagles at the break. Austin Geiger and Mark Jensen scored for ML in the second half to seal the win.

Against Riverside (2-2, 4-4), Batle-Fuentes broke a scoreless tie when his long shot evaded goalkeeper Alex Garza and slipped between the crossbar in the 21st minute. Medical Lake applied pressure late but Batle-Fuentes put the contest away with his second goal in the 77th minute.

No additional details were available by press time.

The Cardinals are on the road for a pair of contests this week, playing at Colville (3-0 NEA, 4-0 overall) April 19 and at Newport (2-2, 5-4) today, April 21. Their road games continue April 26 at Riverside and they return home April 28 to face Lakeside.
