AREA ROUNDUP: Patillo's late goal lifts Diamondbacks
| Posted in | Posted on
APPLE VALLEY ? Nico Patillo scored in the 75th minute to lift the Serrano boys soccer team past Apple Valley 4-3 in a Mojave River League match on Friday afternoon that went back-and-fourth.
The match went into halftime tied at 1, but in the second half the teams matched each other goal-for-goal until Patillo's goahead score.
"I'm excited," Serrano coach Harvey Gamble said. "Apple Valley played well. This is the way the Mojave River League always is. We got lucky, but we worked hard to get on top. It was just a good game. It could've gone either way."
Patillo was assisted by Joshua Guillen, who scored Serrano's other three goals. Jordan Evans assisted Guillen on one of his scores.
Goalkeeper Steven Farias made eight saves for Serrano (9-9-1, 5-1 MRL), including a couple of big ones down the stretch, Gamble said.
Gamble added that Carlos Montoya had a great game filling in at sweeper, and defender Bryan Rodriguez and outside midfielder Nate Oler also played well defensively.
Sam Howard, Brad Noss and Stan Thompson each scored, while Anthony Caudle had an assist for Apple Valley (8-9, 1-4 MRL).
Serrano hosts Hesperia on Wednesday, while Apple Valley plays at Rim of the World.
