Last week was a double success story for the Enumclaw High soccer squad, which rang up South Puget Sound League 3A victories over Peninsula and Lakes.

The wins improved the Hornets’ record to 4-2 in league play and 5-6-1 overall. The league mark was good to land EHS in a three-way tie for second place, along with Bonney Lake and Decatur.

While Thursday’s 3-1 road triumph over Peninsula was of the shootout variety the Oct. 11 outcome over Lakes was far less dramatic, as EHS easily rolled to a 9-0 win. Cayla Dahl scored three goals during the lopsided victory and Katie Christensen had two, while single goals were delivered by Haley Johnson, Monica Whitfield and Hannah Dahlquist. The Seahawks also were guilty of an “own goal.”

The Hornets take on league-leading Auburn Mountainview Thursday.
