Tsunami’s hold on, 4-3

Action in AYSO 57 was fast and furious last week in every

direction, and a good example was the Tsunami’s 4-3 victory over the

Patriots in a game which found the lead changing hands several times.

The outcome was determined with less than a minute to play on a

penalty kick.

Paul Knezevic scored twice, including the winning goal, and Taylor

Martin and Ajay Sahni each scored for the Tsunami’s in the boys under-12

contest.

Scoring for the Patriots were Ben Witte, Chris Horton and Julian

Marisco.

Defensive play from both teams made it one of the better games of the

season.

Standouts in the field for the Patriots were Scott Burnham and Kevin

Maghami, while Dane Oatman and Joey Blackwell stood out in the Tsunami’s

defense.
