Game 1 at Sedona
North Pointe's first Varsity Soccer game at Sedona Red Rock High School was a huge success. The team played together with the great support of the
Prep's Band and over 100 students who traveled to the game. "The team played hard and battled throughout the match," said Coach Scot Smith.
Although the final result was a 5-3 loss, the game was very close. "There were several great performances in the game," Coach Smith continued,
"Senior Joseph Tabor scored 2 goals and constantly put pressure on the Sedona defense. Freshmen Daniel Rodriguez played great in the mid field
and scored a goal. Sophomore Justin Tabor and Junior Froilan Maldonaldo played extremely well on defense and in the mid field."

Hayes raced to the ball and headed it in for the goal A few minutes later, Justin Tabor scored on a penalty shot outside the eighteen. Not satisfied,
minutes later he scored again, this time on a penalty shot from about 40 yards! The fans were breathless. Goalie Allan Garcia and the defense have
given up one goal against two very good teams in back-to-back games.
