Storm King draw
BOTHELL — Storm King Peninsula Soccer Academy fought to a 0-0 draw against the top-ranked North Shore Impulse in Storm King’s first away game of its 12 game winter season.
Goalie Maddie Wenzl had eight saves and picked up the team’s first shutout.
The defensive backline of Erin Vig, Lisa Radford, Shea Barrett and Mattie Clark stifled the Impulse by winning 50-50 balls.
Gretchen Happe and Heidi Viede combined in the central midfield to string together a sustained counter-attack that kept the Impulse back on their heels by connecting with Chloe Sparks and Abby Hansted for breakaway opportunities.
Forward Sierra Robinson, outside midfielders Sophie Radford, Astrid Martin, Saige Hefton and Laura Nutter pitched in to strengthen the core of the defense while providing pivotal connections for counter-attacks.
Storm King dominated the attack with two close goal attempts.
