Sports Editor Coming off a 16-6 campaign, the Marshall Owls’ boys soccer team has high expectations. Head coached by Justin Van Winkle, who is in his 11th season, the Owls lost some of their scoring off a team that averaged 2.63 goals per game. In all, 12 players are gone due to graduation. Armando Farfan was the top scorer lost with five goals and eight assists. Also gone are Omar Torres (7G, 3A); Melvin Morales (1G); and Randy Funes (1A). The seven additional seniors other than the goalkeeper, Kevin Castillo, did not score. The others gone are: Ilir Saliu; Kevin Ceja, Kilmar Cruz, Nick Toliver and Dawson Borja. “We did pretty well rebounding from the seniors we lost the year before. The other guys will step up and fill that void,” Van Winkle said.

Like most high school football teams in the state, the Marshall Owls played in a jamboree at California High School on Friday, Aug. 19, to work out kinks prior to their season opener. The Owls first took on the host Pintos and then tangled with the Tipton Cardinals. Father Tolton Regional Catholic also was there, but the Owls did not compete against the Trailblazers. On offense against California, the Owls managed one first down with their varsity, which accounted for the first 12 of the 18 plays. The highlight of the 18-play set was when sophomore Tashaun Johnson broke loose for a 40-yard touchdown run during the JV set. The Owls had some trouble consistently running the ball during the first 12 plays, but junior Jaxson Case completed one pass for eight yards to senior tight end Logan Alspaw. On defense, Marshall forced the Pintos into two fourth downs, but they converted both into first downs, and eventually scored a touchdown on a 2-yard run by the quarterback. But it came on the 15th play of the possession.
With nine returning letter winners, fourth-year Slater Lady Wildcats’ softball head coach Maclaren Senor is hopeful the 2022 season can be filled with wins. Senor, who is being assisted another Central Methodist University grad Madi Stark, says this will be the first group she has coached throughout their high school career.
