PORT ANGELES — The Peninsula College men’s and women’s soccer teams put on a clinic against hapless Skagit Valley on Wednesday at Wally Sigmar Field.
The Pirates’ undefeated women’s team (6-0-0 overall) ripped the Cardinals (1-3-2) 13-0 behind hat tricks by Ashlyn Crossan and Alexandra Rojas-Ayala.
The Peninsula men, meanwhile, gave longtime coach Andrew Chapman his 100th victory with a 9-0 trouncing of the Cardinals.
Chapman is starting his 10th season for the Pirates.
After starting 1-16-1 his first year and only winning five games the following year, the program has only gone forward.
This is a big milestone in college.
“This is a great accomplishment not only for me but for the college itself,” Chapman said.
“The guys every year work really hard and helped make this possible. After only winning one game my first year and with Peninsula College being the smallest school in the NWAACC that has men’s soccer, I am not sure I thought reaching 100 wins in 10 seasons could have happened.
“With a very supportive administration, it does make my life a lot easier.”
