3rd straight
win for PSA
PUTNAM — Putnam Science Academy captured its 3rd straight win of the soccer season Sept. 19 with a 5-0 victory over MacDuffie School.
PSA continues to shock opponents and make a name for themselves as a 1st year program. After tying the #8 nationally ranked Martin Luther King High School in New York, PSA has now outscored the opposition 14-1 in the last three games.
Head Coach Ivan Damulira said: “We’re playing great soccer right now. The ball is moving, kids are making plays and our comradery is really starting to show.”
The Mustangs put the game to bed rather quickly scoring four goals in the first half including a goal within the first minute of the match thanks to Izan Ramos (2019). Ramos then assisted on a goal by Jenluis Henriquez (2019) in the 10th minute and the flood gates were open.
Pinheiro Romulo (2021), Boadi Augustine (2022) and Victor Reis (2021) scored the other three goals as Putnam Science Academy improves its record to 3-0-1 on the season.
PSA 1 Williston 1
Putnam Science Academy started slowly in the Sept. 22 varsity boys’ soccer game trying out different formations as the team continues to find their rhythm with multiple line ups early in the year.
The Academy fought to a 1-1 tie with Williston.
Williston took advantage scoring a goal in the 25th minute after a hand ball gave them a PK opportunity. Williston would take a 1-0 lead into the half but the Mustangs played with better focus in the second half and would tie the game up on a goal by Jorge Mendo (2020). The score remained the same and ended in a 1-1 tie. PSA now sits at 3-0-2 on the season; they have yet to lose a match.
